Greetings from Indiana

[tljent79]

New ST owner here. Picked up a 2016 to use as a daily driver. Retired a Ford Ranger with 225K...RIP Ranger Danger! The Fiesta is a fun little ride. Looking forward to enjoying it even more after the winter breaks. Only option I got on the car was the ebony wheels. Been lurking these forums on and off for a long time. Kinda cool to join as an owner.

Welcome, where in Indy are you from.

I'm up by Fort Wayne...getting ready for our first decent snow of the season. 6 to 8 inches maybe a little more. When I retire and my kids are grown I'm relocating!

I know I'm in greenwood, in. I need to put on my snow tires and quit slacking

Looks like I'll be spending a lot of next week in my pickup. We have snow 3 out of 5 days on the forecast for next week. Once it dries up I'm back in the go-kart...I mean Fiesta. Gonna make the call for winter tires next week too. My son is 4 and can't wait to go for a ride. He said it looks like a race car.

Have you drove yours in the snow? How's it do with the snow treads? I've not had a car so low to the ground so it makes me a little nervous in more than a couple inches of snow.

Welcome !!!!!!

I've only had mine since April of this year so this is my first snow with it, it should be fine I got a deal on some steel wheels and Altimax tires. I'm stratified tuned so I have a low boost setting that I'll probably use during winter time, but I myself hopped into this thing from a 175000 mile ranger as well

You're going to love the car! Even if you mod ever so slightly

Rawpower...I don't plan to drive it too much in the snow. My Tacoma is too much fun in the snow to pass up. So I took the easy way out and got some all seasons for the times I drive it in the cold.

Thanks again for the welcome everyone. I don't plan to mod things too much. That could quickly change the more I read these forums though!

And the weather folks were right for once....we have 6 inches of powder on the ground with 6 or so more to come today.
