> What do the snowbound Type 3's recommend? I recommend: Driving your other car :) I drove my Squareback today to get gas and I could barely get back in my .0000001% grade driveway. Man, was I miffed, after reading all these snow stories I thought for sure she'd have not problem in the 1 inch of snow thats on the ground in Columbus, OH. But I had to get a running start just to get in my parking spot. Now I do have to say she does not have the best tranny (only 1st gear) but sheesh that should be the gear with the most traction! Sorry to bring down the conversation, but I'd much rather be driving in SoCal this winter, plus I could find more unrusted parts. Funny thing happened on the way to the gas station...I thought I smelled smoke in the car so I pulled onto a side street and as soon as I turned the corner and stopped...what do I see, another Orange Squareback. I was like what the *&^$ that is so strange and I have never seen this car around and it is only 2 miles from my house. Of all the streets to turn down! Too bad the owner was not around.
