that only works up to 35mph, you know....it engages the abs if you spin the wheels on acceleration.
I know, but thats only when you really need it.

It helps get the whale of a car moving in the snow. I used to drive a not exactly stock Nissan Maxima (92) and that car was a nightmare in the snow because touching the gas made the wheels spin through. The only way to get it moving was to just hold down the gas as it spat out gobs of snow and wait for the wheels to grip as the car rattled somewhat sideways.

Once you're moving at 20mph or so it's only the tires that matter.

I have a brand new set of Bridgestone Touranzas and I love them. Grip way better than the shit Eagle GA.

Frankly, I think the liberty is hideous. I like the Honda CRV (don't kill me for the jap car love), it's light, awd, has a fairly quick pickup till about 45...then it's dog slow).


By the way...I LOVE the old man car look. Cops tend to ignore me...or not give me tickets...umm...probably shouldn't admit to this but I got pulled over doing 80 in a 35 last Friday...no ticket..(2am empty straight road that I've been driving on for 4 years..)

Plus in reality the Concorde isn't too bad as far as performance goes...gas usage sucks though....city rush hour = 15mpg. Gha...
