I gots me a 91 Corolla, I think in the spring I might go out and buy a 00ish Subaru Legacy, or Impreza RS. AWD does seem like a fun/safe feature, around Lake Huron for sure.

Had the 7 on the snow last winter... with summer tires no less. Only ditched it once and i deserved it, and it was the corner just before my house. This winter i play with my 98 civic LX. So boring.

'05 Hemi Ram AWD.

Seriously hoping for 4 foot high drifts and that the snow plow blocks off my driveway and the ends of the street, repeatedly. Maybe I'll have to switch from AWD to 4x4,...but I doubt it.
