Traffic was slow tonight, but surprisingly smooth. I made it from downtown to Langley, while dropping off friends along the way, in 2 hours. Winter tires FTW.

I dont mind the plowing, just stop salting the roads ! I'd wish they use sand instead, but I think it costs a lot more.

Just make sure you go through the car wash as soon as the temperature gets above 0 degrees

I cruised right down from Vancouver to Richmond @ 80km/h on 4 season tires.
zero traffic ftfw. AWD ftfw. Mitsubishi may make shit cars but their 4WD is GREAT!

It's still blowing at this ungodly hour. I just burned god knows how much gas seeing exactly how easily an AWD Lexus LS460 slides.
And I can now tell you that it slides easily enough that you can pretty much navigate into, around, and out of every parking lot in the Port Kells area without the back tires ever getting traction. Awesome.
But, if it continues, I may abandon next weeks press car (Pontiac G8 GT) in favour a chain-equipped Land Rover.
GOD I LOVE MY LIFE.

I went sliding in the snow with my car for the very first time today... kinda fun, but the snow was too thick in that area. Because very few cars have been there recently so the snow was still fresh. Couldn't pick up any more speed than like 40km/h...
