I'm trying to make a decision, and I need a bit more information from the experienced folks on this board. It's looking more and more like the Navy will probably want me in Connecticut for this coming winter (October to February). From there, I'll move to somewhere else -- either Norfolk, Pearl Harbor, or stay in CT.

My current thought is to dump my beater Honda before I move, then put a roof rack on the 911 for the cross country move, and live out of the base hotel for 6 months with snow tires on the Porker for daily transportation in the snow and ice of CT. When I get confirmation of where I'll be going for sure, then I can make more solid plans about a more long-term daily driver.

So the questions -- is it stupid to drive a 911 on CT's winter roads? Do they put nasty Porsche-eating chemicals on their roads? Would Blizzaks and a Paris-Dakar ride height be a realistic means of transportation? Is it stupid to think I could move cross-country with ~500lbs of stuff in the Porker (I'd obviously have a roof rack), in October? Does anyone have a better plan? I'm all ears...

Thanks in advance,

Dan
