Default Winter Beater's

I'm going to be putting the SHO away for the winter here withing the next week. Just wondering what everyone is going to be driving this winter. I just got an 89' Ford Probe Turbo from my brother-in-law. Its going to be a fun winter car since it's pushing out 12lbs Boost. What is everyone else going to be driving this winter?

This is how I roll in the winter. I will be taking the wheels off and putting "Moon" hubcaps on it.
