Default Winter car?

I think I should look into buying myself a winter car now, that way, as discussed in another post, I can insure that so I will pay less for my Lexus. Anyone near Milwaukee, WI that has a good running car they want to get rid of dirt cheap? I hate winter, no Lexus!! You know how it is, you come rolling up to a stop light in your POS car and there is some hot girl next to you, I wish I could just yell out the window "this isn't my car, I really drive a turbo Lexus" but instead I continue to look like a goon sitting in my POS car at the stop light.

But if you DID say it, she'd probably just reply: "Sure, but it's an automatic....a REAL MAN drives a stick!"

So then you're stuffed anyway.........

Ahhh, very true, but it would at least be better.

I just moved here from Chicago, and, all I have to say is, get a front wheel drive vehicle for the winters. Rear wheel drive vehicles don't get very good tration at all, even with the trac on.
