Can you imagine mounting chains on the Goodyear tires? lol! Lord knows how bad these tires are below 40 degrees... how about minus 40 degrees?! Hell, would the car even start at those temps?

My GTOs LS1 starts fine no matter the temp but the Tremec 6-speed squeals the first few miles when it's below 0 F. My garage stays ~40F so no problem there but it sit outside when I'm at work.

I haven't started the ZL1 since early November.

My new car came in 3 days after Christmas. I drove it for four days before this weather started. I out on the CAI and now it sits on a charger. The parts pile grows daily in the basement. I can't wait for 40 degrees.
