Re: Your ultimate (and/or most unlikely) snow car (sleddog)
Well let's see....
Out of the:
87 turbo subie
89 ford festiva
82 fwd subie
76 cj-7 (with 31's)
83 cj-8 (with 31's)
91 civic hatch (lowered)
92 isuzu ls spacecab 4wd (31's)
93 vr6 passat (50 series summer tires)
only 2 of those have ever been stuck....the turbo subie (only had high range which, with low pro wide pirelles didn't work very well) and the scrambler, but then again it was my fault (spun a corner at snowbasin and plowed head first into a snow bank up to my roof....
Everything else has plowed/pushed/growled through everything utah has thrown at me. I even took my sitting on the ground honda up sardine with 3-4 inches of fresh snow one year. I've never been in a snow related/weather related accident. But I have mastered the art of fwd e-brake slides on dry/wet/snowy/icey pavement...lol
Now onto the subject....I think a fun snow beater is the rwd chevette. We use to get so ripped and go out and reek havoc in one....but really, anything will work...well it has for me...(those fwd festiva's are devils in the snow, a friend with one use to go up small 1 dirt road canyons with his....and never get stuck)
