Unhappy Upstate NY

Hey,
Anyone successfully drive a rear wheel drive 300 in Upstate NY (Niagara Falls)? Please tell me how so my baby can survive winter for next 2 yrs.
Thank you.

I'm in nyc and it's like a different country when you compare the winter of upstate ny to it. But, these are two things that would help you out alot. 1, snow tires and 2, leave the esp on and you should be fine.

Here is a link to snow tires for your car...

I lived in Buffalo NY. You car will get decimated by salt. Just get a winter beater for the winter. Then pull your car out after the first big rain and you will be good to go!

NYC...thanks for the link. I'll be holding onto it.
PKinDC...I'll be checking into a winter beater. Straight up. Dude, no harm to my girl. Sorry, I'm a little crazy about my car. Finally got one and she's my baby.
Thank you both.
