I got way too cocky with AWD and winters. Will not be making that mistake again. Have to say, it is one reason why I like RWD in the winter though - constant reminder of just how slippery it is as you struggle to get traction.
This is NOT a place I want you to relocate me.

MKSixer maybe, but not me.
