My TR4 is my daily driver -- I'm in it every day. Not much snow in
Southern Arizona though once in awhile it catches you (with the top
down):

You're wise to the value of overdrive though, since you don't see
yourself as a purist, you might want to look at the alternatives that
permit the use of a Toyota (and other) 5-speed in the TR6.
Several systems are out there using either adaptors or purpose-cast
bellhousings. Even the original style OD is available as a rebuilt
from a very reliable source. All cost a thou or two but then you'll
likely pay a similar premium for a TR6 with working OD on board -- so
what I'm saying is if you find the right car w/o OD you have some
options available.
