I forgot how nice 60 and sunny feels but I also forgot what a pleasure it is to drive a competent car instead of my old 4x4 pickup. What car do you have? I drive my BRZ year round, the right tires will do wonders on a good car I hear what you're saying about the difference though, after driving my 06 Durango with half worn shocks and tires it's such a pleasure getting into my go kart and winging it through some corners wound out in 2nd or 3rd gear. 2 hours ago, Paragon said: This is perfect if it's not going to snow.

Yup pulled the vines off the roof and cut some overgrowth out of the way, did a final leaf blowing and driveway clean up to make shoveling easier and tomorrow I'll do a final yard cleanup. The oil savings so far this fall have been significant, no complaints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drive my BRZ year round, the right tires will do wonders on a good car They certainly do. Tires are definitely the most important thing when trying to daily a low, manual, RWD vehicle. also love the brz, one of the purest new cars you can buy. i have daily'd an e46 coupe (currently 2002 330ci) for 7 years now. Without snow tires, it's miserable and generally impossible to get around in anything over an inch of snow. But a nice set of blizzaks makes the car usable and safe up to around 4 inches of snow, beyond that point it's an issue of ride height over traction. snow tires previously on higher vehicles have shown almost no limitation to snow amounts so long as you have sufficient ride height. i would even bet a RWD jeep with snow tires would outperform a 4x4 jeep with "all-season" tires, but that's purely speculation. all that said...i will be getting some type of older 4x4 truck/SUV soon, coming from the subaru world i like feeling that i can go out in any conditions if need be.

E46s are pigs in snow (but fun to send). My GTI is fine if I kill traction control and start in 2nd even with all seasons . Anyway, mid 40s now feel a whole lot cooler after mid 60s today.

Summertime we really heat up fast too, westerly and northwesterly winds and we're hotter than the city!
