I am beginning to question why I opted to get the 4Matic rather than a C350





I'll be driving the Lexus ES300 until everything clears up in NYC. Drive safely out there fellas.

 

It's like 90% of the C300s i see here in the NJ/NYC area are 4matics and rarely do i ever see the rear wheels drive variation of our Cs ?? From what ive learned having a rear wheel drive is fine as long as one has a good set of snow tires

 

I'll be trying my E350 4matic tomorrow... I'm in Queens.

 

Talk about timing...I will flying into Newark today and be working up just north of the city for the next couple days. Looks like I will be in a front wheel drive rental so no worries...I hope...it has been a while since I have been out in the snow.

 

Why would you drive a lexus es 300 when you have a 4matic benz sitting right there

 

That's what I said

My E is great in the snow...

 

I have the rwd verison for our cars plus it is 6spd, but mine will not see snow nor rain i was driving this morning with my civic and damn the roads are crap. I thought Turnpike was clear but i wasn't 35 mph all the way home.

 

With the way people drive and park here in Brooklyn, I don't want to risk having someone smash into the car while I am at work. (Happened last year to the Lexus.) That mixed in with all the salt and debris laying around, I am attempting to avoid paint chips.

Crazy? Maybe . .

 

i know what your saying.
I am from staten island

 

yeah i know what your saying as well, no need to drive in the snow when you live in the 5 boros, public transportation. with all the holiday shopping madness out there & snow car safely @ home...lol i don't know why i see all the 4-matics as well i got a rear wheel, it just doesn't snow enough to get one in NYC. merry x-mas & be safe during the holidays my peoples

 

check out my c it stuck in 12 inch !!

 

after 2 hours clean up with small steel Plow!

 

wow i never seen so much snow in my life.. wait i never seen snow in my life :P It would suck if you had to clean up the snow everyday for 2 hours.

 

this makes me miss snow..kinda.

 

LMAO I got snowed in in Queens and had two flasts too! Just got it fixed today

 

My car is parked in my nice dry garage until this snow and salt gets cleared. This snow is nothing compared to the **** I had to deal with in south central virginia this weekend, where I was stuck there for 2 and a half days in the MIDDLE of US-29. Boy, was I PISSED!!!

 

Did the tires going flat have something to do with the snow?

Just curious.
