Snow vehicle. teach me the ways.

this, they do so well. i admittedly drive a lifted SUV on mud tires year round, i just drop it into 4x4 and ease my speed to match the conditions. my buddy in a subaru outback with snow tires goes everywhere i do, until things get deep and fluffy, then he cant make it due to clearance issues that i have eliminated with bigger tires and a lift.
 
stop* and turn. Not start.

Well, I guess they help start, too. but I'm much more worried about being able to stop than start.
 
stay away from the mazda 3 line, it was produced quickly and is a lemon. the timing belt has issues, frequently breaks and the drive train doesnt stay in line.
 
or at least for the newer series, 08 and newer i think they are. my friend bought one, crapped out within a week, gave him all sorts of trouble. was in the garage more than on the road. my mechanic said that they are terrible for the drivetrain, and that the engine will give out early, after suffering from many "adverse" complications.
 
that's how i roll!does get pretty cold at night tough, in combination with condensation from your breath you basically wake up inside of an icy freezer :)
 
I can't argue they can be beastly cars but honestly a DSM is not a reliable car. The DSM curse will always linger...beware.
