a 100hp car with fwd will plow snow better then a 500hp truck/mustang, purely cause of FWD> RWD.
in my parents years of driving that car daily all year since 2000 it has never been stuck and its been through 3-4 inches of slush several times,, or just plowing foot or so of snow cause the blades hadn't been out yet.
a large number of the cars/trucks you see in ditches out here in winter end up being RWD or AWD suvs thinking there gods cause they have awd and can do anything.
I punch the gas to go through a patch of slush/snow,, mustang punches the gas and meets the ditch.


but really 500hp from a engine while making 80mpg sounds like pure BS.
thats easily tripleing what that engine can get if driven nicely at canadian speeds on a highway..

if it work why not just apply that to a 100hp. 1.6L car and break 100mpg without blinking?.

unless he figured out how to run on fumes.
