I am working on an essay now, it is a problem-solving essay.

And my topic is " Winter Transportation in my S" . i have to have three solutions for it , and talk about each one's advantages and disadvantages.
Anyway, here are the solutions:
1. buy a hardtop and snow tires.
2. take the bus
3. buy a cheap 4x4.

Hope you guys can help me think some advantages and disadvantages of these solutions. Thank you very much!!

are u in need to support the solutions. if so here

cheap material made by the soft top. maybe explain the material whats it made out of? for the hardtop it is made of much stronger material. maybe explain the rear window size. lets say if snow gets on tehre or the vision isnt really good on the soft top. i dont know if this helps

snowtires? ive never heard of them, maybe grippier tires that grab. more traction to the snow.


i tried.

alright disadvantages of a bus...

- freekin cold maybe no working AC cuz they citys cheap

- uncomfortable seating

- If i wanna listen to music i gotta bring my own damn cd player

- weirdos sometimes are on the bus

- bumpy ride

- takes a loooong time to get where you want due to many stops

- If you get hungry and want food you have to get out and pay agian to get back on the bus (unless you have a weekly pass or something)

- have to walk a bit to get to bus

Disadv of 4x4 beater:

Extra insurance costs (if both insured at same time)
Extra storage space needed
Additional money for maintenance

Good luck
