Actually I think Ontario is pretty much a backwood hicks province including Toronto (borderline 3rd World until very recently with all the influx of foreign cash), but Toronto is not redneck country to have a ton of pickup trucks (most of them put weights into the flatbed to help with traction). We have a lot of stupid snow banks from plows that would ice up hard and hilly sections to deal with like in North York. Now the city waits forever before it even starts to plow to save money. I see sedans and small cars getting stuck all the time all the way back to the early 90's (I've only been here for that long). The newer cars even worse with hardly any clearance in the front lower bumper and around the wheel well with big wheels, cracked front lower valances is a common scene. The modern common SUVs are already fairing better with the snow conditions. I doubt your sports car excels in this (I remember the days seeing 240SX always spinning out). I don't think you get out much to see.
