For those of you who store your G, what do you drive around in the winter?

I'm waiting for winter to go away to sell my cadillac and get my G but next winter I'm buying a 2000ish silverado 4x4. Can't deal with RWD in Canada!

 

Snow tires make a big difference on the G, but if you can afford to use a winter beater, do it!

 

Note the poster is from Canada. I'm in South Dakota, live in town, and love driving the G in snow with all season rubber. It's a way different ballgame up north though...

 

my beater is my first car. 00 civic si. i was going to sell it when i got the g, but i made the choice to keep it because i went back to school. good thing because of gas and my civic has be hit 3 times this year in the school parking garage. i only drive the g at night and on weekends. my area only get snow every few year, if it does snow ill use my parents tahoe

 

My DD and winter beater is a 1992 Taurus SHO. The G gets driven mostly on weekends only.

 

My beater is a 00 honda accord ex sedan 4 banger. Even though I was driving the G more when I first got it cus I couldn't help it...I have learned to drive it less and drive the accord.

 

my beater is a 94 Grand AM 4CYL. this is the first winter with my g and i didnt realize just how bad it was in the snow with summer tires , i couldn't even get out of my driveway after the first snow storm. next winter i might try some good winter tires, i cant stand not driving the g for this long..

 

Mine's a 2001 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 that I stuffed some 32" tires onto. It's just a 2.7L 4-Cylinder truck with a 5-speed manual, but it's a blast to drive and gets halfway decent fuel economy for a truck, is dead reliable, and will drive through/over anything nature throws its way. I love it.

One of the less-obvious awesome things about driving a high truck in the winter is that you can see over those snow mounds at intersections. When I used to drive my 240SX as my winter beater, I would pull up to intersections and basically have to play Russian Roulette with my car trying to guess if any other cars were coming because I couldn't see a damn thing beyond the high snow mounds.

 

Not really a winter here in SoCal, but I did pick up a 92 Volvo in mint shape for $500 just to keep miles off of the G.

 

I lve in Canada as well, about 2 hours from toronto, and luckily have a 2000 Cav z24 to drive all winter so my G doesn't get any abuse

 

Wife has a 2003 Saab 9-3 Sport Sedan, and I have a 2007 Subaru Outback LTD. We drive the Suby pretty much exclusivly in the Winter because it is so good in the snow.

The G is in storage till April

 

east of toronoto in the country, 94 teggie w winters.

 

'91 toyota pickup, '00 mercury mystique, or 50cc scooter ftw!
