To be clear I only offered my real world experience in a quite similar vehicle under very difficult conditions otherwise wouldn't have tried to contribute. As others have said, it's not like the gas pedal is an on/off switch. Great tires and experience are your greatest weapons when the going gets tough.Driving a GT500 in the cold and driving a Mustang GT in the cold are two very different things. Not trying to be a snob but different demographic. GT500 owners typically don't daily drive their rides and are super anal about every detail about the tires. If a GT500 owner were to drive consistently in the cold they'd likely at least have performance 3 season tires on. Throw a large positive displacement blower on a V8 and that low end torque curve isn't amenable to driving on rock hard tires in the winter. For GT owners who are more likely to daily drive their rides just don't be stupid about it and watch out for tire cracking.
