----- Assuming your winters bring snow, ice & getting up 20 minutes early to scrape off your car -----

Do you drive your Z in the winter months?

--If yes, what do you do (if anything) to make it winter-ready?

--If no, what do you drive instead during this time?

During the winter/snow months, I drive a FWD Opel Vectra C (2004).

[rmezz13]

[Viggy75]

I didn't really do anything to prep for winter, because I procrastinated and the first snow hit before I did. Although I was planning on putting a fuel stabilizer in it, covering it, and going out about once a week to start it and let it run for about 1/2 and then checking tire pressure....also moving the car around whenever I could so as not to get flat spots on the tires.

But since I screwed that up. I wasn't able to cover the car. I still start it up at least once a week and luckily the weather hasn't been to bad for our winters and I get to drive it occasionally.

Usually the wifes SUV becomes the main vehicle of the winter.

Jeep Grand Cherokee FTW-ter. Z is hibernating in the garage, safe and sound from any salt, slowly sucking juice from a trickle charger.

[R350Zz33]

hopefully next year i will have another car, and we sold our camper so theres room in the backyard where we might build another garage if not ill get a carport thing part it under there and put it on jackstands ill have a cover to and i can run power to it and do a trickle charger along with fuel stuff. then i can start it up from my house one a week for 15 mins yay! remote start ftw!!! hopefully my pan will turn out

[delaney360]

I drive mine in the winter, beats the bike in the cold. Plus I live in Texas not too bad of conditions.

[snwbrdr435]

Don't have a z but if i did i would def get a beater. Winters, along with naladudes and r350zz33 kill cars.

[R350Zz33]

i dont kill cars im just a mad nasty driver always balancing on the edge of out of control

[MySXisSlowerThanUrs]

I used to drive it in winter and i did nothing to it to make it winter ready.. Its not a ferrari or lambo, Just drive it like a car

I was totally going to defend Richie on this one, because it came from nowhere, but then he made this comment

and figured whatever crap comes his way is just fine, because he dug his own hole lol.

[SemperFiV12]

Like LMFAO says, "Im in LA *****"... end of story.

[pat the farmer]

Nope I would never drive a car like this in the winter come on now lol. I had an mk3 golf but I got too much fun out of it one night lol dunmb move but we had a laugh. I drive my bors car for the remaining time of winter, he is out west so that works out. Oh the car is a sweet *** caprice classic.. brougham edition ahahahahahaa. And also open down pipe :P

[Tennz]

When it Snows and Ices I drive my truck.

[slipstream_pnoy]

my z sleeps during the winter

[dasoupdude]

LUL wut is this "snow" you speak of??

[Psyhons]

[MYZSPOT]

...always balancing on the edge of out of control

Bless your heart.

I wasn't insinuating it was a Ferrari or a "Lambo" .. lots of people winterize all different kinds of cars.

This car has very little traction control in the winter, though, and has a light back-end, which may take a little more work if someone were to drive it in the snowy months. It's also slightly lower to the ground than most other vehicles, so roads could be tricky.

I'm just curious.

[R350Zz33]

lambos do drive better in the snow then z's anyway. they drive better then h2 hummers 2 i herd lol.
