Anyone refuse to drive their Stinger in the rain or snow?

My family and friends think I'm nuts for refusing to drive the Stinger in the rain, anyone else have this problem? Whenever it rains, I drive my old 2003 G35 instead of the Stinger. [rofl]

We are a one car family, so don't have much option but to drive in the rain. Won't see any snow unless I go looking for it.[hihi]

Our Stinger is the family hauler so it goes out year round.

Although I would love to not drive it in the rain, it is my daily so it has to wether I like it or not. [:(]

Wife's DD, so if she wants to go, she can choose between the GTO 6-speed and the Stinger 8-speed slushbox. But she grew up driving grain trucks for her father during harvest, so she can handle a stick just fine. Trouble is, I KNOW which one she will pick. [driving]

Maybe if it was a vintage Ferrari or Aston Martin. But a $45k Kia? Nah...it gets driven in all weather conditions.

I thought the OP was concerned about driving in the rain because of the stock tires with RWD. One of my cars is a 2017 leased Mazda3 GT hatch with manual. I would NOT drive this in major rain or any form of snow because the stock Dunlops are precarious. Otherwise its like a baby Stinger, which will be mine in 2020 when the lease ends.

I live in Seattle. If I didn't drive it in the rain, it would never get driven. :)
