who in thier right mind would drive this in the snow?

[Waver]

Well I was getting gas a few days ago and just happened to have my camera on me when I saw this car comming out of the carwash...I guess I am not the only dumbass who would drive a mustang in this shit, But come one, it looks like this car had never seen snow....wtf

oh well for your viewing enjoyment.

My sister drives her mustang year round....but its only a v6...lol

[jbiscuit]

I saw a 67 Chevelle out yesterday!

[Nix]

Is it not yours Neuwave? :confused

[Waver]

Is it not yours Neuwave? :confused

I know not what you are talking about lol

[animal]

I drive my 04 gt all year round, no abs, no traction control. But that guy is bumming with the eagles on there in any more than 1/4" of snow. My blizzaks got me through that 12" of snow we got. The snow was above the door sills even. They're really not that bad if you have the tires for it. Without them i'd be going no where. :)

[Z28Roxy]

My sister drives her mustang year round....but its only a v6...lol

I would drive a V6 mustang, camaro, or firebird as a winter beater. Who cares?

Hell I'd probably drive a V8 if it had already seen a few winters.

[SmokinRAM114]

yea because its urs u musta just bought it thats y its out

[GRNDNL]

I drove this last winter in the snow a few times?...........:confused

Does the Moostang even have enough power to spin the tires in the snow?..

I cant lie about it any more....Yea it is mine, however I didnt just buy it...I have had it for a while now...

Animal, you are right, the tires suck in the snow, or when it is wet....however I am getting free tires for life for it so I cant really complain, and am getting a 2nd vehicle as more of a daily....

[Cutlass Queen]

Neuwave bought a new mustang? :wow

I bet you're glad you sold me that intake for mine so cheap now that you have one to put it on lol. :rolf

[Flight_740]

I don't see what the big deal is really. It's not like it's some kind of classic. It's a cookie cutter mustang. Same thing with Camaros and firebirds. There just is not anything special or unique about these cars anymore like thereused to be. Just my 2 cents.

[SmokinRAM114]

Neuwave bought a new mustang? :wow

now it can be NEWWAVE

[Waver]

Neuwave bought a new mustang? :wow


yeah, the 88 got to the point where I just didnt have the time or money to keep up with it, so I decided it was time to give it a new home. I got this to make things a little easier on me with everything else that is going on in my life right now.....

[Waver]

I bet you're glad you sold me that intake for mine so cheap now that you have one to put it on lol. :rolf

lol naw, I am not worried as the car came with an intake, exhaust and a tune.....not planning on doing much else to it right now except for maybe gears. Other than that, I am just going to enjoy it because I have to get the 2nd vehicle as well as pay for otherthings.

True, however I ahve always loved the way the 4.6 cars sound.....plus I have been thinking about getting a newer stang for a while and it just came to the point where I had to bite the bullit

I bought mine to be my 2nd vehicle lol. :durr

[Flight_740]

Oh no doubt. There is still something to like about them don't get me wrong. I just don't understand why people are so affraid to drive them in the winter.

[Want_Notch]

Is that a 03?

I may be trading mine in soon so we could just swap complete axles.

[Slow Joe]

I'd drive that thing in the snow... Snow Tires + Winter Wheels ftw... lol

[Slow Joe]

It's an 04... :thumbsup

[Want_Notch]

It will still work. 03 and 04 were the same abs sensors.

BTW.....nice car.

Why didn't you just buy mine?

[Waver]

I could never afford to get yours out right man. I needed to get financed and I couldnt do a private loan or I would of considered it...let me know about that axle in pm.

[Heat Seeker WS6]

Very nice Nick! :thumbsup

[Slow Joe]

I can say one thing about it... It reminds me of my 6-banger cause of the color... :(

[Waver]

Oh no doubt. There is still something to like about them don't get me wrong. I just don't understand why people are so affraid to drive them in the winter.
it is because they are not the best suited for the snow....the lack of weight in the rear is the difference maker. Even with trac controll and abs it still is very twichy in even the least bit of snow with those goodyears......

[Waver]

That is what me and a certan someone that we both know said a few days ago. If I end up doing the suspension it wil remind you even more of it.

[fivonut]

Upgraded Nick????

[Waver]

Very nice Nick! :thumbsup

thanks John......When is your car going to be ready?

[Slow Joe]

With the Goodyear Eagles they suck in the snow... With a set of anything else (and I mean almost anything... EXCEPT worn out drag radials :rolf) they do just fine... One Winter I had Blizzaks on it, and never had ANY problems at all what so ever... A couple years later I had a set of Kumho Ectsa HP4s on it and no problems with those either...

[Waver]

except for going up driveways, right lol.

I will have to talk to the dealership to see if they will give me a better set of tires if I offer to pay the difference

[Slow Joe]

That is what me and a certan someone that we both know said a few days ago. If I end up doing the suspension it wil remind you even more of it.

That's prolly another thing that'd remind me of my 6-banger... The passenger that's in the car the most :rolf

And if you have any susension questions, etc you know where to call... :thumbsup I now have a much better understanding about the suspensions on those cars from that experience... :rolf

I'll just give you a hint right out of the box... Tokico ADJUSTABLE shocks :rolf I didn't figure that one out til I already installed the other ones in the car...

[Slow Joe]

There was only one driveway I had problems with... Once I got almost stuck, but made it out... The other time she needed some pushin... :rolf Funny thing is that my S-10 never got stuck there... Then again the tires on that thing were awesome...

Of course the first time it had 18" Pirelli PZero Rossos on it and it had just snowed in mid march (that sucked alot...)

The second time there was like 4-5" of snow on the ground and gettin up that hill just wasn't happening with my all-seasons...

[Heat Seeker WS6]

thanks John......When is your car going to be ready?

In a few days :thumbsup

lol version 3.0

[Slow Joe]

John, you know as well as I do that version 3.1 will be better, 3.11 will include networking, and then there will be a big update once again in a few years :rolf

[Waver]

[Slow Joe]

yeah it was time to just pull the trigger and just have fun.....lord knows that life is too short not to

I sold the 88 to a guy in minnesota...really nice, and I keep in touch with him to find out the progress....He is planning on taking it to another level that I wanted to, but couldnt due to various reasons

[xxsn0blindxx]

Nice upgrade. I bought my 01 at the beginning of February in 05 when the weather was unseasonably nice. Of course two weeks after I bought it continued to snow some more. I drove it a few times in the snow with the BFG KDW non-snow & mud rated tires and it wasn't that bad. Especially considering this was my first RWD car I had little to no issues with the snow. There were a couple times I had to make a run a the hill in my works parking lot and I got stuck parking at the bottom of the driveway, but there were no scary moments. You just have to be cautious and drive like a grandma when there's any snow on the ground.

Manual, that was one of the things that I had to have...manual and a v8....plan on taking it to the track to get some base numbers the first weekend of gld....will be happy with low 14's due to stock gearing (3.27) and the extra weight. Wont have to do much to it though to get it to the 13.5 that the 88 hit before I sold it.

i drove that all winter when i had it...all season tires, 6spd, and traction control i didnt have much problems with it all. i was downtown madison with it and somebody knocked on my window and yelled at me for driving it in the winter though...lol :goof

[Cryptic]

There was a real hot black C6 in the parking lot where I work yesterday.
Wet and salty out... must be nice to not give a damn and just go buy a new one every year.

[Flicktitty]

To me it is my exotic car, my ferarri.....

Im not knocking on it. My uncle has one and I am helping him put a supercharger on it and a few other mods. He put about 10k in it so far. I happen to miss my neon because I sold it for my truck and boat.

[davidjp3]

It's a real nice car but it's a regular GT Mustang and there's a million of them around. If it was a rarer one like a mach1, cobra, or a fox body and older then I would have to agree that driving it in the snow would be stupid since they're a lot harder to replace.
