Sorry for my earlier question/reply. I'm using the digest mode and didn't get that far down the list.

I wouldn't want to drive either of those vehicles in the snow. They are a whole world of different from an automatic Vanagon. I had a hot Nova with a 350/TH350 combo that was a true bitch in the snow because the damn thing wanted to go 20mph at idle! Lord help you if you touched the gas!
