Dilemmas.

Take all but the minimum parking insurance off of the Dart, stuff it in the garden until spring, and get a big brooding 4x4 for winter?

It might work out that way.

Brb, subscribing that phone number to cat facts.

And yeah, tough to beat a truck/SUV in winter. You can make do with a car (and well at that) but there's a practical use for them in Canadian winters. I drive my mazda3 year round but when I go skiing I pretty much always borrow truck.

I owned a Tahoe Z71 and loved it, it was the perfect size for lots of stuff. But small enough that I didn't feel like a douche when I was in it by myself.

Suburbans are my favorite, but you can't go wrong with a Tahoe or Yukon.

Tahoe!

Or AWD Safari!

Just kidding, Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade. GMT400, of course, unless you want an 800.

Hear me out. Olds Bravada 1st and 2nd gen = 4.3 Vortec + AWD. Add turbo to the mix and

BOOM. Instant Typhoon. You're probably still right to stick with a 'Burban.

Hey Clay, I've never bought winter tires before and I'm looking for a good 14 inch passenger tire for my Miata to take on the highway. What's good?

You did not mention where you live? Do you live in the cold, damp, snowy Midwest or in the dry climates of Arizona or Southern California? Anyway, parking your car on the grass or dirt for a whole winter is not good, it will rust from the bottom up. The floor pans and brake discs will be very rusty by springtime.
