Info wanted on 2006 GT in Winter?

I have the opportunity to take on the lease of a 2007 GT for roughly the next year. It would have to be my only car, including for use in Michigan winters. It's a manual trans with the low gears. Has anyone used their GT in the snow? I will obviously be purchasing a set of rear snow tires. Is it going to be next to impossible to get through the winter, or is there hope? THanks!

I haven't driven mine in snow but the traction control is fantastic on rain slick roads.Calspec

My 03 is my daily driver and three tricks that I've learned: Add 100 pounds to the rear most part of the trunk w/ a slight bias of weight towards the passenger side and turn off traction control. Especially the 2nd bit since in snow, your tires will always slip (especially up a hill) and once t/c detects it, it'll stop moving the wheels causing all sorts of problems (I lost momentum up a hill because I forgot to turn it off). Lastly, in 1st gear, ease off the clutch since the high ratio will spin the tires. If possible, start off in 2nd.

the '05 and up Mustangs are a different animal..
Thay are amazing in the snow, rain....u name it...
Get one u won't be sorry

Just stand on it and let 'er buck!!!

I love driving in snow!!!
