Default Meanwhile in Canada, first snow storm :D

First snow storm here in Montréal Woke up this morning and the F was entirely covered up. It's time to take out the shovel and try to take the beast out.
Let see how the F act in the snow. I'll keep you updated.

Nice!....although that is just a light dusting in your town

The real test..... is to take it out on 15 North and see how it handles

just had blizzak lm 32s installed this week and we got 6-8" last night. Went out while the roads were still covered and never had an issue. Car felt planted and I felt like I was under control the whole time. Highly recommend winter tires for the F!

Agreed, we had 9" in West Orange and once I got the hill plowed and salted, the F had no problems
