Yea I really miss AWD... first year driving the M with snow tires and its too easy to throw the rear end out. I tried to get into one parking lot that wasnt plowed. Uh yea, my cars too low, got in about 5 feet, plowed the snow and slowed down, so I threw it in reverse and got out of there. haha

In duluth we got more than a foot...

well the drifts of snow.. but anyways

there were a couple times where people would be plowing with a 4wheeler and see me flying down the road sideways and theyd cheer me on or give me a thumbs up

that felt good

saturday night i got home and couldnt make it up the driveway. there was just too much ice. weird thing is that i didnt slide at all driving the entire way home.

so i got the car onto the driveway, right at the bottom. long story short, my car got PWNED by the snowplows. woke up, half my car is fucking buried in snow. took me an hour and a half to get it out. :( :( :(

They were raising their fists in anger and giving you the bird.

Steve, just clean out the rims. My Grand Am was the same this morning. Shook like mad. The rims just have an un-even snow pack, pack more in to even it out, or clean them out.

The Grand Ma slides nicely with the e-brake. But I have gotten it sideways a few time with out it when I didn't want to go sideways. It's fun/scary turning left while going around clover leafs.

Yeah the E brake is about the only way for me to have any fun in my FWD.

geez i feel dumb. my car sunday morning was shaking like mad (after i dug it out of the snow), and i didnt know wtf was going on. i thought maybe i had a tire low on pressure. this morning on the freeway it felt fine. your post makes sense haha thx.

WIsh i had a camera, decided to fill up some gas in the talon, nothing like 50mph sideways onto a major highway, oh yeah with the window down and one hand out like the pros.
Best sound ever too.
