Kenosha, WI here. Where are you?
I'm editing this because I noticed, AFTER I posted, that you are from Appleton. I'm originally from Fond du Lac. The local dealers can't keep these nifty cars in stock so there must be a few more of us.

I lived in Edgerton, WI for a year. First time I ever saw snow was there.
Wow, I just realized this was about 14 years ago! I'm old.

No, it isn't. We should do a regional meet before summer ends. How long have you had your Yaris? I'm curious how my HB will do in the snow.

i was up in milwaukee for business last winter and my liftback handled the snow just fine for the two weeks i was there. i was using just the stock tires(goodyears) and still getting used to a manual transmission, but i didn't have any problems. i think it's more the DRIVER than the car in most cases.

Thanks
Yup, saw snow in the air here, too. 'Tis the season, won't be long now til the "white death" falls with accumulation. I have a manual too (sedan) and have gotten used to the clutch. It had a little strange feel at first, but now its second nature and I don't think when I'm using it.
Glad you made it through Chicago, Ok. The only thing I hate worse than driving through Chicago in my car, is navigating it on my motorcycle. Everybody dodge deer.. it is that season here now, too. No new bambi hood oranaments! |

^^ I was pretty close to having a close call with a big Bambi yesterday. I'd rather hit big snow flakes than deer any day. Hopefully we won't have as much snow as we had last season.
