Man, I'm glad you are ok. My wife and I were in a situation about 2 years ago. It hadn't rained in a month here in Texas. When it does rain after such a long time it's like ice. We were driving to my parents house on Christmas eve and we totaled our 06. Man I loved that car. In the end it's material and most important is you!

Nothing wrong with normal driving on stock Pirellis in cold weather. Just let them heat up normally and drive like you are suppose too.

I thought Ford had fixed their body panel alignment issues.

In all seriousness, glad you are safe, cars can be replaced. Coming from someone who has lost loved ones in accidents. The engineering in keeping you safe is the best reason to buy a newer car.

Good luck in either getting it fixed, or replaced.

Cheers from the other side of the world.

I just don't think thats true at all from my experience with the Z rated P Zeros. And it doesnt even get too cold here, so my entire critique is even just from rain. The Z rated P zeros get sh* traction in the rain. Its not the least bit stable and I have to watch myself. Cant imagine how bad they would be in ice or snow. The few times I tried to drive it in snow/ ice it was badically gripping the wheel for dear life and I aint a cautious driver, but holy hell. Now this time around Im getting the all season P zeros because im not getting the Performance Pack but if I were I wouldnt drive those for a minute in the winter. Get winter tires.

So I was just on a road trip to a Church convention and hydroplaned and went head on in the wall. Needless to say I'm very thankful to God me and my friend were completely okay without a scratch, although I'm sad about my car

Glad to hear everyone was OK, that damage will probably buff right out... sorry I had to.

I don't think that totals a $40K car. You can do a lot of fixing for $25K.

Yeah. For his sake I hope it's totaled, I doubt it will be. Some time on a frame straightener, if necessary, and some new panels/parts will put it back on the road.
