Front wheel drive is great in the snow.. as I stated earlier.. I am running Yokohama Paradas and I still had more control than many SUVs out there today. And the Paradas are NOT rated for use in the snow.. No hard biting edges to grab and pull the car through.

we don't have any snow yet here in Seattle... I saw on the news that the east coast was hit pretty hard. Looks like a lot of fun!
Better idea than E-Brake in snow: borrow (steal) two trays from McDonalds, put them under your rear wheels, put the E-brake on as hard as you can, ease the car into gear, slide all over the place. I can't wait to get some snow so I can try that. Someone do it and tell me how it works!!

Here in iowa we got a little snow and ice and it was a fun time driving. but it was the first time i have driven a car in the snow so it took me a bit to learn how to drive without spining my wheels.
