    Driving in snow report

    I used Blizzaks on a Jeep Grand Cherokee when we lived in New Jersey. Great winter tires. They, /made quite a few winter trips to New England.

    Let's See Some Photos From The "Rich Copper" Gang

    It's the only one in this color that I've seen. We walked into the showroom and there it was. My wife, who's not a car person, looked at it and said "YES"'

    Forscan code

    There's an option in Forscan, it think it's called Secure Idle or Police Mode or something like that, that won't let you drive it without the key fob. You can leave it running but it won't go into gear.

    How to clean/treat dashboard?

    Mine had the same problem when I picked it up. I used whatever leather treatment I had on hand and it's looked fine ever since.

    ST Experience

    The only thing my wife couldn't ride along in was the skid car. The instructor rode shotgun for that one. She rode with me for everything else and loved it. She could have driven most of the events if she had been able to. When she didn't, they let me take the extra turns.

    Parking brake auto setting in Drive

    I really don't remember, but I don't recall any circumstances that stood out as a reason for it.

    So what other cars are in your stable?

    I'll have to check and see if I have a picture or her somewhere, but I think I was next to Catawba in dry dock in Charleston several years ago.

    What are some of your other hobbies?

    I had a Camaro SS 396/375 that I bought new in 1968. Loved that car,

    Parking brake auto setting in Drive

    Mine did that once. I figured I must have hit the switch accidentally. I never heard of it happening before to anyone else.

    It was unexpected, running into you this afternoon. I've more or less stopped looking for other ST's on the road, there are so few of us. We were running late for an appointment or I would have suggested we pull over and talk. Maybe one of these days we can get together for a cup of coffee or...

    Up until I retired this was also in my stable. Now my daughter has her.

    Unexpected auto braking with nothing behind vehicle

    Mine does it occasionally if while backing into the garage I get too close to the side of the door opening.

    What I like about my ST

    When you get the chance, go to one of the Explorer Experience events. Pushing one of their ST's hard is even more fun than doing it with your own.

    Driving in snow report

    I live in South Carolina now, so snow is the least of my problems. But having spent the previous 60 some years in New Jersey I wouldn't use "all season" tires in winter. They're designed to help you in very light snow and ice conditions, but for real winter I used Bridgestone Blizzaks for years.

    Hello Everyone

    OMG, Real Snow!

    HEY! Where's the pony you promised me last year? While we don't get snow down here in South Carolina I used to live in N.J. and drove several 4wd up there. The "snow" setting on the ST, like the others I drove, will change the shift parameters and adjust the power delivery fore and aft to...
