Finally...Something positive to say about the car! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Drove to work toady in about 10" of fresh un-plowed snow. No drama. Even on uphill starts.

Blizzack snow tires can take some of the credit.

so you had all negative things to say about the car at first? uwotm8

robo_robb · 02-08-2013, 11:08 AM

I wish we had real winters down here in NJ.

I'm glad we don't have real winters here in California, although today it's going to be a cold 54 degrees.

Lol from the title of the thread I take it you don't like your car. So why keep it?

They are a great snow tire. Good to hear the car worked for you today. Just double check those windows eh.

I was able to book today off. I'm not going out on the road in this stuff if I can get away with it. Time to fire up the snow blower!

So, with a ground clearance of 3.9 inches, you were essentially a snow plow. That strains credulity.

Not really, the snow coming down right now is very dry and light. If it was 10" of the wet sticky stuff though...

Tt3Sheppard · 02-08-2013, 12:31 PM

So anything over 3.9 inches of snow and we are a plow? haha
