i’m fine the car is fine, i stopped about 5": from the car behind me, it was a younger kid.,…the girl with him was def pissed, he seemed intent on makin sure i was ok. i was going maybe 25mph in a line of cars, only thing that kept me from hitting anyone is that i was spinning and moving forward just as fast as i was moving before, so theyhad time to slow down. quick thinking kept me on 28 as i crossed lanes 3 times. then to end it all i pulled off the road and slid into bout 12" of snow beside the guardrail and buried the right side of the car. i took pics with my phone but i dont’ have the link to them handy (i’m at work) what a freakin day. ---

people always rave about AWD in the snow…but i think its easier to spin out with it compared to a FWD. ---

nah i never got winter tires this year because i bent a wheel on my 16’s and had to put my 17’s on earlier than i expected and i’m still on kumho esta’s or whatever they are…absolutly dangerous in the snow as i now know. and 17" winter tires are just…blah expensive ---

> _Originally posted by 1320_ > **people always rave about AWD in the snow…but i think its easier to spin out with it compared to a FWD.** meh… i dunno, ive always found the AWD to make snow driving many times more palpible. Since Kurt was only going 25mph and spun like 3 times, im guessing some black ice was the culprit, and thats gonna fuck FWD or AWD. ---

I just bought a Nissan Pathfinder recently …and it flat out rips through snow and ice. It also has awesome snow tires though too. ---
