Default How Bad Are FWD Cars In Rain/Snow??

I might be getting and have no idea, but the guy who is selling it doesn't like it because of that problem.

Discuss

it may or may not have ABS. i know that the RT is awful in the snow, as i have driven it once...that was all it took for me.

The car itself is in great condition, it looks great inside and outside. Also it was my aunt's car, so I know how it was treated.

My sebring did pretty good in the rain, when the tires started wearing out, it was kind of an issue, but they usually do better than rear wheel drive cars, depending on the situation. As for snow... I live in Texas... What's snow? Ice, though, ice can be a problem, that was difficult, but it was also for an Excursion in 4X4, so it's a problem all around. Ice and snow are dangerous in general. I've never had any problems with the handling other than when I floored it at a red light, and even then it did great...
