Snow tires are like quattro; once you've had them, it's hard to do without.

Default Agreed Re: snow tires
Found myself volunteering to shuttle folks, pick-up, etc. Go through anything with ease.

Default same here. my 17 year old and I just dropped off his girlfriend. VERY steep driveway,
her mom calls just as we get there to ask us to wait to give them a chance to shovel. My son says "don't bother".... 8-)

I really should keep a camera in the car at all times. The look on their faces was priceless !
