A good car to drive during the Winter?

By Matt.M
- Wed Jul 29, 2009 11:41 pm #134141 Well, I just posted in a poll about 'Who drives their Civic in the Winter?' and it made me think, I plan on moving up North in a few moths for college, Pittsburgh actually, and was looking for a car for my girlfriend to get anyways since she needs a replacement. I was actually planing on talking her into getting a Civic since it gets good gas mileage and they are rather cheap on top of being reliable, but now I'm thinking that I'll be looking for a car that will do well in the snow. I would go for a SUV, but the traffic up there isn't very SUV friendly(gas), as the college she's going to is less than 10 miles away but will take about 25 minutes to get there.

I WANT THAT!!!! Damn, I wonder if having a small auto loan of around $1,500 will hurt me getting a $20 loan for a house...because I want that SUV so bad. I have a few people that asked to be on my team and travel with me for work since I'm higher up than they are, and that will allow them to drive with me and that will save us all money on gas if we split the gas. But then again...I get paid $.35 per mile I drive...and splitting gas 3 ways in a car that gets about 17 highway is almost as good as me payig it myself in my hatch :?

But God do I love SUV's. The gas sucks, but I love the ride and I think that thing is BEAUTIFUL.[/img]

I've been looking for Honda's too much. I forget that 150k is a lot of miles.

And dang, I didn't even notice that damage!
