Yesterday brought another 12" of "the greatest snow on earth" with more on the way! The Supra stays safely parked in the driveway until I can see the asphalt. (hitting boost on an icey road makes the car do scary things)
And in my humble 22 years of working for the logo opinion, nothing beats a Subaru in the snow.

you're kidding, right? how about the abnormal amount of wheel bearings they go through? my best friend is a mechanic, and he's replaced so many wheel bearings in those things it's ridiculous.

he also loves subarus because they're simple to pull the motors out of. :)

Try driving a 5 speed SC300 with open diff in the snow (that was today!!) It sucked big time, I wanted to drive the Galant VR4 ssooooo bad today, But it has no insurance!! :(

Subaru's do quite well in the snow for a car, better than anything I've ever driven. But still nothing compared to any full sized truck.

They have extremely weak trannys! My friend broke his 3rd gear, He was just trying to jump on the ramp for the highway, I thought dsm trannys were weak.

proof? just because your friend broke his doesn't mean that they're ALL weak. ;) way too many variables...

oh, and thread moved to OT.
