As strange as it sounds, it actually happens. I took the car on a 300 mile road trip yeterday, and 10 mins out of selby it started blizzarding. Weather said it was clear.

I'll have to agree with Sam on this one they had been calling for freezing rain/rain/snow all week.

What I mean't by that was that it was just raining earlier then it was sleet then full on gigantic flakes of snow and before you know it it was borderline blizzard.

When I hear "snow" I think little flakes here and there not flakes the size of my palm falling like a blizzard. Guess I should of worded it differently, literal faggots.

Damn right you should

. Here it went from standing snow, to ice, to rain, and now back to snow with unplowed streets. I have graduation in 2 hours and have to pick which will be better in the snow and unplowed roads, the TA or the Civic. Obviously I'm taking the vic, but man I miss having a cummins right now.

TDavis · 12-14-2013, 08:13 AM

Ta go!

I would do the TA for shts, just leave an hour early.

stop buying shitty winter cars or get better tires. don't even have to be new tires just go to the junkyard and find the best tire with decent tread.

geldartb · 12-14-2013, 09:10 AM

looks dirtier in person.. was gonna wash it the other day but since it's going to snow tonight i passed on that. swapped the alternator and after that my feet were frozen so that's it..the whole thing probably took like 15 minutes but it is 10*f outside.

sleepyalero · 12-14-2013, 09:42 AM

People who can't drive rely on ABS and traction control in snow.

I always turned that crap off in my GA.

The car im driving for winter has no abs. No tc. And 10% tread on all tires.

The alero... it doesn't have tc either.

geldartb · 12-14-2013, 11:27 AM

so you bought a car with shitty tires to drive around for the winter.. best decision ever?

make sure your AAA is paid so you can call them to pull you out of a ditch. i really suggest you buy a set of used tires with some decent tread unless you plan on driving like a bitch because you have shitty tires..

sleepyalero · 12-14-2013, 12:06 PM

Im borrowing the car. Didnt buy one. So im not gonna waste mt money to put better tires on there car. And this would be the first winter with low tread tires. My 16s has like the same amount of tread and ive gone through snow fine.

I think ill be fine.

geldartb · 12-14-2013, 12:24 PM

yeah i would buy tires for someone Else's car.. i thought you bought the car.

geldartb · 12-14-2013, 12:28 PM

and BAM from the same time as the other pic..by tonight the dirty girl will be covered in snow.

the outback in the grill is getting removed but that's gonna wait till it warms up so the plastic clips holding the grill on don't shatter.

sleepyalero · 12-14-2013, 12:40 PM

Nope. Just using it for winter.

Me personally, I'd find the Legacy GT-B grille, JDM tails (they're 50/50 opposed to amber signals, it'll go nicer with the two tone) and paint match the mirrors. Well, that's just appearance wise.

i was actually planning on paint matching the mirrors. got my folding ones off the old legacy. little cold to paint in the garage now so in the springtime. got that paint gun i haven't used yet..

i was gonna get the jdm tails for the old legacy but i didn't want to spend money on mods so modding didn't happen..

I'd say the JDM tails would be worth it, it's the small things that really make a car unique to you. I love the world spec tails on my Galant.
