Any year around drivers in northern states?
 

The simple solution would be to buy a beater for winter driving but I just don't like having two vehicles to worry about.

Yep, I will be driving my 2009 SRT8 Challenger 6-speed year around. I reside in Michigan.

My current car is a lease which I'm turning in on the 17th. The Challenger will be my ONLY transportation so I've got to make it work ;)

I've ordered the car with the F1 tires on it - they will be for spring/summer driving. Once things cool off and approach winter I will be purchasing a set of cheap wheels and a good set of winter tires (blizzaks maybe). I've heard from numerous people that snow tires + Chrysler's ESP system and these cars feel like they're on rails in the snow.

I could probably waste some money on a beater, but I'm *NOT* going to pay the monthly payments on this awesome Challenger just to have it sit in storage all winter. It's meant to be driven, and it will be!

I'm in Michigan too, Livonia area. I don't feel so bad now about considering driving one year around.

I live in NY. I will drive the Chally in everything, but snow. If it snows than I will steal my parents SUV. ;)

I think a light snow and a big empty parking lot would be fun!! [sm=icon_rock.gif]

Not driving in the rain means I should be able to see three or four solid months here in Washington. Possibly one month in years like this year... [:@]
