I live in SW TN, and had to drive my 91 home from Cairo IL on Friday. In MO and AR, they got almost 6" of snow after 3 hours of sleet. It was very fun, but dangerous because of all the idiots trying to go 65. I wish I had pictures. From Memphis to Corinth, MS it was a solid sheet of ice. To climb the hills on US 72, I had to get on the shoulder and spin down to the gravel. For 110 miles, I never exceeded 30 mph and had to dig up every hill and slide down. Living in Detroit for 2 years prepared me for most of it. I can tell you, a 240 is NOT the ideal car for this.

But it is very fun.

well i live in southern new hampshire so i know all about snow and 240's. i had a gold 90 sohc that i had to drive for 3 1/2 years in a row, including the wimters so i saw about 3 to 4 winters with that car.

one time i was coming home and i have a hill about 3 miles from my house, the hill is a nice steep incline, and to top it off the beginning of it has a short but sharp s curve

to make a long story short the hill is about 1/4 of a mile long up hill and on my 3rd attempt i made it up in about 20 mins and the whole time my speedometer was reading 75-100mph in 5th gear. i made it but very very very slowly lol
