Wife is a teacher. I bought her a 2013 Escape. Hell if it farts outside she's off. So I just take the Escape those days.

Snow tires + self car wash ~one a week. Can't wait for spring to do a full detail, engine bay, and clean the top side of the header skid plate.

Drove it the previous winter in Ottawa. After the winter I lowered it 1" and then decided to store it.

I consider a bus pass and a calendar that counts down the days to be a better option. It's just not winter friendly down town on a heavy snow day.
