Want to buy a new FIt but worried about winter driving...
I currently drive an 04 Hyundai Elantra which is very good in the ice and snow of Iowa. I am looking at the Fit but the only assurance I can get from the Salesman is "hey, it's a Honda if you don't like it you can trade it in." I would really like to know how the 08 Fit does in winter driving.
For the salesman to say that is not to smart, I know I would take it that the car itself is not that good. But if you go to car-survey.com you can read what other owners have to say about the car. As a side note I live in Ontario Canada and we have a a "good" winter this year, I have not noticed to many (if any at all) driveing around this late in the winter, at the start there was quite a bite of them, but not much now
I have an '08 Dodge Caliber, front wheel drive like the Fit, and about the same size. It does fine in the winter. I was looking at the Fit but the Caliber was less expensive and a bit roomier, so I went with it. I would not be afraid of driving the fit in the winter.
Don't worry about driving it in the winter. my boss owns one and she drove it just fine. and we work at UPS so you
have to show. she just got some real good hakkapeliitta with studs and she was fine she got though some stuff
that my truck had trouble in. she never was late. and we live in central vermont so don't worry it just about how
you drive and what kind of tires you got. i liked hers so much im getting on in about 2 weeks.
