You know I gotta give ya a rough time about stuff,lol. Just remeber SLOW down next time, if the people behind ya dont like your speed, let them go around and then when they are slid off the road you can drive by and laugh at them.

My wife was doing 10 when she curbed it and it cost me about $450. We've had how many snowy days this year and you still haven't gotten the hang of driving that thing?? You stay up in Dayton and I'll stay down here hahahaha

Oh come on, I have gotten the hang of it. That's why it's only happened once this winter, and not butt loads.. Seriously. Think about it, my being as new as I am to a FWD vehicle, it could have been a lot more..

Sorry man..this has to be said. Driver error. FWD. RWD. AWD. The car only does what you make it do.

Huge update here, fired up Paddy and Boo Boo, pulled 'em out of the garage so that I could drag out my engine hoist. Once your buddies know you have one of them, you're so dang popular on the weekends. As an aside, nobody here has gone without denting/dinging/bending a car since they got their license. Just remember that the next person to get a little "behind in their steering" could very well be you.

Suggested by whom?......... It's winter, it's snowing, speed limit signs are to be ignored in the favor of safe driving! Obviously 25 was not a safe speed

1151 It's good all is relatively alright I think every one is trying to look after you.I would venture a guess all of us with more experience have mangled our fair share of metal gaining that said "experience" hind sight is always 20/20.Driving any vehicle on snow and ice is unpredictable at the very best.To error on the side of caution will always give you the best chance to roll thru unscathed,as you develop your own experience.

Keep the rubber side down Son

More like the city of Dayton and the State of Ohio need to do their damn job and clear the roads. That is one thing I MISS about MI. They knew how to do it. We could have a foot of snow, and by noon, the dang roads were clear except for a bit of water on the road.
