[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 15358, member: 162"] Re: Cars in Snow You East Coast folks have gotten hit harder than we have here, but it's been plenty snowy here too. My current vehicle stable includes a 4X4 Ford Explorer, AWD Chevy Astro, a 2WD Sunfire rollerskate (planning to sell), and a new Chrysler T&C van. The Explorer and Astro are both great in the snow with all season tires. The sunfire is actually surprisingly good for a light 2WD. We just bought the Chrysler - I really wanted AWD, but the only choice is the Toyota Sienna, which was about $10K more. Hopefully someday vehicle swap #2 will be the Explorer for some kind of cool car - top of my list at the moment is a BMW 328i xDrive. I'm interested to read reports like yours of good winter driving in relatively small cars. It gives me hope of something like that working around here the other 4 months of the year. Fun fact of the day: I've now used more diesel in my tractor snowblowing this winter than I did mowing all last season. [/QUOTE]
