  • First portion of video is driving with roads plowed, but still covered in snow
    Trial in heavy snow starts at 14:04. Subdivision is buried in like 8 inches of snow, and the road has not been plowed.

    I love that you do this it just shows that our Mustangs can be driven all year it just depends on the tires. Well done!

      I like to think that calling in to work for a single day of deep snow per year is acceptable. Rest of the light snow can be driven just fine. I previously had a 16 Camaro SS that drove up a hill of raw ice with these same tires.

    Best camera angle out there.. particularly for 6 Speed. Im on the verge of getting a V8 although im hung up on a '24 or not. I can score an earlier model at just over half of what a new '24 all decked out will cost.. snow is another consideration for me.

    Spraying the bottom just blows the salt further back up into the cracks n crevises.

    Let’s gooooo a video!!! Did u end up getting that code sorted out?

      I think it's sorted, so will take the test when weather warms back up. The cold and the cams causes misfire codes on startup every now and then.

    On the last trip out of the drive, why didn't you launch in 2nd gear? You were doing it on the first day. I'd have a stick and never launch in 1st when it's bad. Too much torque.

    • @Karrottop009
      @Karrottop009  Год назад

      Even with the 4.09 rear gear, launching in 2nd requires a lot of clutch to not stall with the cams. Wasn't willing to burn that up over a snow day.

    How deep does it get before you are stuck at home?

      This video was during a 13in snow storm, and was the first time being snowed in. The killer for me is starting on an uphill climb. Think if I stuck a ruler in that snow on the road, would have been 3 inches? These tires are only undefeatable if the roads have been plowed so there's only a packed snow layer to drive on. Thick and wet is where they struggle.

    cool story bro. how does it do in 10 inches of snow?

    • @Karrottop009
      @Karrottop009  Год назад +3

      Literally 13 inches of snowfall across the two days of this video. No, the car did not make it anywhere in the second day of the video lol.

      @@Karrottop009 LOL that sounds about right. I own and regularly drive a 2006 GT. Snow isn't it's strong suit. I got it stuck in my own driveway several times last winter. Fortunately I have neighbors who'll sit and laugh and drink beer for about 20 minutes, but then come over and help push.

      I live in Arizona so I can use a mustang all year long bc no snow in the winter just a cool 40 degrees in the morning and 70s in the afternoon

  • @colechapman6976
    @colechapman6976 Год назад

    so how can you operate in multiple inches of snow completely out of the Mustang's comfort zone and not crash, while thousands peel out and then hit a bystander? This video makes no logical sense. I think it's faked

      You got me lol, totally computer generated footage from my multi-million dollar computer. But yeah, I would blame all of the economy tires being left on in the winter. Those are great for mpg, but terrible in wet weather.
