As much as i hate to put the crossfire unfortunetly it is my only car and want to post this up to get some laughs lol. enjoy i plan to take it to the car wash and clean the underbody after it melts over here in the midwest.

 

 

June is an awfully long wait...

 

That is just what mine looked like a week ago...Minus the icicles.

 

Great color! Where in Illinois are you?

I bought my car to be a daily driver, I could never see myself saving it for a nice day!!
I'm too lazy (and warm) to go outside to take a picture, so here it is from my window haha.

 

driven in snow ....priceless, i guess this will help member on winter driving

cool pic's

 

Well, you could always put some "BACK OFF" logo's on your slushflaps.

 

as long as they have yosemite sam

 

i am thinking about using sand bags in the back.

I am in missouri columbia

 

There's a city in Columbia named Missouri? Cool.

I don't think that sand in the bags is the norm, though...

 

Faiz, your pics. remind me of my driveway!
Xfire's in driveway, Merc. Cougar being driven 'cause it WON'T STOP SNOWING!
Borrow your neighbor's Merc., you won't worry about the snow no mo'!

 

I just took my daily driver out to Wal-Mart for an ice scraper. Ironically, there is about an inch of ice on the roads covered by another 5 inches of snow. It was my first time really driving in these conditions... good thing I have a lot of patience. I was surrounded by FWDs and it felt like they were all laughing at me while I fish-tailed back and forth. I cannot wait for my drive to Florida this weekend! I can only hope it will be snow free the whole way.

 

the mercury cougar is my girlfriends and i take it sometimes when it is really bad weather. it has new good year triple thread assurance tires which do pretty good in this weather

 

faiz,

i already did this in mine. home depot has tube sand. i bought 3 50lb bags and they fit nicely over the rear axle. it has helped a lot.

p.s. they are like $3.47/bag or something stupid cheap. plus, if you get stuck you can rip open a bag and lay down sand to help with traction. multi-purpose for the win.

 

yup i just picked up a couple to assist in traction and they were like $4.74 each so not bad at all. i have relieved some air out of my tires to assist in traction i think i had something like 34psi i am at like 29-30 psi. what should i be running in the snow.

 

198K on my '99 & it is my official winter mobile.
Well, at least when the roads suck.
Which has been like darn near every day since the start of the month.
The sand tubes are a great idea, I've gotta drop by the nearest HD & score a few!

 

I also use my Crossfire as a daily driver, but fortunately for me, Alabama doesn't usually get much, if any snow...

 

You boys up north keep buyin that sand, maybe Home Depot won't have to ask for a bail out and I'll keep my job !!!

Good one, Stogey!!
