Zuljin,
You're not in the Air Force by any chance are you? If you are, are you going to Minot or Grand Forks? Either way, I hope that you like snow and lots of wind. I haven't been up there myself, but I know some people stationed up there. I have one freind up in Alaska who used to be at Grand Forks, and he said that ND is colder than AK is, just because of the wind there. I'm stationed at Tinker in Oklahoma City. It's probably better than ND, but there are way too many pickup trucks here and not enough EPs.
Anyway, I'm sure that the Si will do as well as any other car out there in the snow. As long as your tires are good, and you don't drive like a maniac, you'll be a-ight. Good luck up in ND.

Since every EP owner in Canada can drive like a maniac during the winter, I'll say you'll be ok. Just ask SirMedic, I'm sure he can tell you how to drift on the snow :p

And for some reason, I found our stock OEM tires are doing pretty good on snow, on snow only...

Lt_Si, yep i'm in the Air Force and its Minot. Right now i'm at Vandenberg so its going to be a big change from CA to ND.

Thanks for the input i'm orginally from the south, so yea like NO experiance in snow and ice. now if i can just not drive like a maniac since my friends here say i do.. personally i think its just southern driving.. :)
