Wow take it easy. When you only have one car and you HAVE to go somewhere you have no choice. It sucks to be in his position about now. There could have been other circumstances but it is possible that he had no chioce. I can feel his pain. I use my car as my DD.

Hell, even my V6 slides in the rain. I don't think it's worth it to take some 400hp rwd monster out in a snow storm. Unless he was caught in it or something. Mustangs are not bad weather cars.

I have never heard of a non-brand name car....would that be like a Fred's Fun Wagon?
Yea, thats ****ty. I live in chicago, i drive an ACCORD everyday. It was ****ing stupid, and you know it. Theres a snowstorm, lets take the mustang. That was just dumb. If you dont see it, your an idiot!! Unfortunate luck..ha. He's a dumbass, get a cheap geo or something, dont be driving that in the snow.
Because some can afford a second car no matter what it is and how much it is doesnt mean everone can. Its not just hte price of the car, its storage, maintaince and insurance for the second car. And again, you dont know the circumstances which he was out driving so why not give the guy the benefit of the doubt?

Like I said before, if you own a sports car in a nothern state where winter=snow, then you better have a place to store it (hell even your DRIVEWAY with a cover on it is fine), and a little cash set aside to buy a winterbeater.
Its all part of owning a high performance sports car. If you cant do all that, you shouldnt even consider buying the car.

I just got to say that I drive my bolted on 97 cobra in the winter... hell the first day I got it I had to drive about 45 miles in about a foot of snow just to get it home... that might have been the most stressful 45 miles...and I now live in Texas, but if a person drives their mustang smart it is the same as driving most any car. At the same time, when a person makes the commitment to driving their Cobra in the snow/rain/icey weather, they have to be willing to accept what comes with it...

Cobra + ice = -
