Thankfully summers right around the corner so i wont have to worry but im thinking about buying snow tires for next winter.... Any suggestions from experience? Thanks so much!!
Manual or auto? I saw in another post you had a limited coupe?

You mentioned you totalled your last car - was it rear wheel drive too?
Just a quick word that if it was front wheel or all wheel, going back to rear wheel is a little different. Might want to just get used to the feel before you go all out. Especially with snow driving - hit up a clear parking lot and do some sliding around to get a good feel for the car's reactions before dealing with traffic too. Although I initially had rear wheel drive cars - most of my life has been front wheel drive which definitely handles differently, esp.on questionable road services. Just my two cents.
