Message	I had a spin in my first twinturbo, and even had to abandon it in a parking lot @ one point. Soon after I started making sure I had a DD that could carry me through the winter. First it was a 97 maxima, which i picked up for $1300 (needed work) 40k miles later, I sold that for $1800 and bought a 97 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L 4x4. Now I don't worry about the snow. I put a semi-aggressive on/off road tires on it and don't worry about it. Long story short, the best way to avoid wrecking the Z in the snow is to not drive it in the snow. I assure you a Cherokee can be found near you for under $2k. Its a little more than seperate snow tires, but has some side benifits.
