I also drive nothing but manual trans, so I could start off from a stop in second second gear and, could keep the car out of the power-band.

The few times I've driven a "modern" fwd car with an auto trans in winter, I either got sideways more than once or in the case of my dad's Chevy Cavalier, down a 15ft ditch and on the roof.
