Stupid me listened to the weatherman this morning about how it might snow this "evening", so I took my vette to a 2 hour class at work and when I came out it had an inch of snow on it and the wind was blowing like crazy! Needless to say it was a little scary driving home slipping and sliding the 15 miles, but I made it! Is 10:30 am too early to have a drink?

Go for it. It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

I drove mine two weeks ago in 2 inches of snow/ice. Did just fine.

Won't melt. The big thing to worry about is other idiots sliding into you.

What is a "Bizzard?" We don't get any of those here in the Northeast.

...just caught that. I got caught in a ice storm in my 05 " mustang "Flame suit on" it was some of the scariest driving Ive ever done. I would have been toast in the vette.

As much as I love my vette, I have no desire to try and drive it through the winters here in the northeast.

Man I hear you! I made it home from Tarrytown to Scarsdale in New York in a blizzard and remember being Very impressed with my 92 Convertible 6 speed going up hills and always thinking I would slide off the road. But I didn't! These are awesome cars!

I wouldn't have minded driving on fresh show, but the roads were a solid sheet of black ice, because the wind was blowing over them! I was spinning at every stop sign on a flat surface! Ice+345lbs of torque+rear wheel drive = disaster!

As long as the snow is not too deep and you have snow tires I bet these cars can go anywhere.

There goes your selling point of NO Rain, NO Snow/Salt, and Adult Driven.

I never did get the "adult driven" part. WTH, is that supposed to mean?
I think what is mostly means is you drive your "sports car" like a old Cadillac which to me means slow and easy. WTH, is the point of having a sports car then?

30% chnace of snow my ***!

Well the no rain or salt is still in effect!

I feel your pain!!
I had a trip like that after work a few years back and don't want to ever repeat that again

Once there is even the slightest hint of a white flake falling from the sky the vette is off the road until April no matter how much the weather forecaster idiots lie!

It's never too early after such a harrowing experience.

Just watch teenagers drive out of a high school parking lot. Or whenever there's a group of them at a store parking lot/gas station/etc. You'll quickly understand why many people get turned off when someone says that a car/truck was driven by a teenager.

From what I've seen, I won't buy a car from most teenagers. And that's really saying something because I'm 17, and I know how most of those idiots treat their cars!

I remember those days (33 years ago) I was only 14 when I got my license! My first car was a 70 Camaro R/S and I was hell on wheels! Amazing I'm still alive! We used to have a burnout competition when we left high school every day!


I drove that thing in the snow with big fat 50's on the back, but I guess I thought I was invincible back then!

VeryUnoriginal

Lucky! I almost got a fixer-upper 1970 Camaro SS/RS. Really good price, but I was too slow I guess because he sold it the day I was supposed to come buy it. I'm glad I didn't get it though, because I wouldn't have ended up with my '93
