![]() Hi,
I live in a snowy climate. Does anybody have any advice for driving a Stang on slippery roads? Is it worth it to buy snow tires for rear-wheel drive? Please help. thanks |

![]() Harold, your funny. By the way I tried the Zaino products they work great. I love that gloss spray.

![]() Thats what I plan on doing. I just drove in a complete downpour of rain and had total control. I've heard some people say that Mustangs are bad in the rain - I did not have that experience at all. My Mustang did come with traction control. When I had my Tacoma I used to hydroplane in the rain all the time. I am really pleased the way my Mustang handled in rain.
