    I grew up here, when it actually snowed in the winter. Never drove a 4 wheel drive until I was in my 30s. Never had an issue in my 2wd pickups. Currently driving a clapped out MR2 on mostly bald tires, no issues. People just need to learn how to fuckin' drive.

    I just love idiots who think they're special cutting around the line of cars going up a snow-packed hill. I understand the Hummer being impatient with all the dumbasses getting themselves stuck but he's not helping anything by racing around and taking up maneuvering room. At least the Hummer had 4WD and a decent engine -- the Minis and 2-door coupes (or better yet the 2WD oversize pickup -- seriously, WTF drives a 2WD pickup in Colorado, especially in a snowstorm?) leapfrogging to get in front of me only to get stuck and fishtail through two lanes up the hill .... bah!

    Stupid people should move back to CA or NY or NJ or some place where they'd be the norm! Odd thing was, I couldn't see an Obama sticker on a single one of the arses.

    ^Yep! I live near the top of the woodmen hill, between Austin Bluffs & Rangewood. No way to get to my house without going UP some hill somewhere... Last night was interesting, thank God He put a snowplow in front of us going up Briargate blvd!! Woodmen was a parking lot...

    I learned my snow driving via 2 tours in europe. Nothing like making courier runs thru the Ardennes in the middle of winter lol. Or driving on the autobahn in a snowstorm.
    I still have not figured out the people that move here that are scared chitless to drive in the snow yet still insist on trying drive during a storm.

    You mean when people don't know how to handle inclement weather, like this?
