A new way to park

[95hotrodlincoln]

I was in a hurry earlier this week, and with over 8 inches of snow on the ground I knew it wouldn't turn in to the driveway, so I improvised and powerslid her halfway up the driveway. Went in the house got my stuff and left, and didn't get stuck.

Just last week I pulled into a frozen parking lot. I slowly pulled in to a spot and then the car slowly slid out of that spot, across the lot and gently slid into another spot on the opposite side. :lol:

thats how we used to park when we got home from the bar...

it gives people around you a good laugh, or a good scare if they are terrified to drive in this weather. Doing a 180 around another car to make it to a good parking spot scares people, only because they don't know we have complete control....most of the time

I don't think anyone said they handle "good" in snow. All I can say is that I drove mine around in the snow and ice and had no problems getting to and from where I was going. It's not "easy" to drive these cars in the snow, but it's not impossible either. However, I would much rather drive my 4x4 Exploder in weather like that any day of the week.

They do alright in snow its only when the snow is so bad that its up to the doors and you have to dig your car out of the driveway, is when you have problems. Some random guy in a minivan told me to put the car away because it was to dangerous to be driving a rear wheel drive car in this, and for some reason that pissed me off a little
