There is just something so Fail about a 3000lb rear wheel drive car as a "winter beater"
Keep your AAA card handy to get it it out of ditches and snow banks.

I have had a couple people vandalize my cav and I just had somebody back into it friday night. So maybe thats karma for ya. Its not like i do it regularly.

Just put it up for a laugh I thought it was pretty funny when my friend Tim did it. But I do see your point. I wouldn't like somebody doing stuff to my car. I realize it was a jackass move.

Its not the best winter car ever should have labeled it more as a daily driver while my car is not driveable when I will be doing major engine work to the car.

I think if a girl drove it year round for 2 and a half years and kept it out of the(snow banks and ditches that are all over the place in my city). I think I can do the same for one winter. (said sarcasticly)

It was 500 bucks for a 1600 dollar car. I think its a good deal.

Quoted for truth. I'm a former t-bird SC owner. That IS NOT a winter car. it's rare to say this but RWD FTL. And blown Head gaskets and 3.8l V6's go together like cookies and milk. Stock up now. There's a reason you were able to get a $1600 car for $500. (said sarcasticly) Otherwise i still love t-birds and that one looks good, just ease around corners on a cold icey day.
