      Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
      Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
      Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
      Torque is how far you take the wall with you

        My usual, the Accord. We had a 94 Tempo that I could've kept for winter but we decided to sell it. Next spring I plan on doing a lot to my car so hopefully next winter I will find a winter beater so I can garage the Accord.

          Hondas and Subarus make excellent winter cars

          FASTER THAN DUBBSY

            Can't complain with AWD in the winter

            1998 Grand Cherokee LTD - Winter beater

            N/A is the expensive way to go slow

              I don't get why anyone would want to park their Subaru or Honda in the winter.

                like it makes any difference with a mazda or mitsubishi? why would you want to park you car for the winter? I think what you dont understand is why people DO park their cars for winter...whether it for for sentimental reason or not.

                  Because my front bumper & intercooler is worth more than your Mustang perhaps?

                      Why would anybody want to own a Mustang in the first place? I don't get it.

                          Oh wait, I figured it out, they park them for the same reason that somebody buys a Honda Fit to road race with.

                            We park them for the winter because we want something that is reliable and gets good gas milage, but can also handle well for the occasional trip to the track?? that doesn't make any sense.

                                      I'm not parking my "Road Race Ready" Honda Fit for the winter, It's just gonna sit in storage in Ohio until I get back from break. I still don't get why that amuses you....
