PSA: You are going to want snow tires this year

[brutal]

get a 800CC quad with a 60" or greater plow...then after u get the driveway clean, you can pull the kids around the hood on sleds...

Great if you stay on top of a big one.

I can't tell you how many times I've pulled out or unburied my neighbor's ATV plow when he comes home and tries to plow after a big storm.

I usually blow out half his drive/apron for him and his and the neighbor's sidewalks that don't have blowers.

I run ALL terrains on my ecoboost f150 and it works well in all seasons and terrain. However, when we go up and down the mountains in the winter we always take the Wife's ride with winter tires. It has much better feedback and with the soft rubber it sticks at higher speeds no matter the temp. Winter tires grip and I feel they are safer on-road with the sipes and soft rubber.

I know you haven't. You can get away with a lot less tire with a 4x4. Last year was the first year I ever had snow tires on a car. I always just ran all seasons and did fine. After having snow tires though, I don't want to go back. Another thing of note is that I've been driving on those same snows all year and they are ready to be rotated now. I have an easy two more winters on them.

Yep. I grew up on RWD and sometimes running snows on the rear. Always wondered why all those 4WD's were in the ditch. My truck is good in the snow with the LS in the rear and if need be the ARB in the front but I will say that unless it is 2' deep I will take my GP with the studded snows every time. With traction control and individual ABS it is down right boring to drive in the snow and ice.

Yes I know all the real men drive with bald tires in the winter but sometimes the modern stuff has something going for it.

please don't talk to me about tires right now, am buying a house right now and getting married in November, and have no money and need tires soon.

I'm calling it for the late November "I spun out and got stuck in a ditch and missed my own wedding and the closing on my house and my fiance ran off with my rich cousin" thread now.

Don't forget to put the top on too...

Nah, I hear snow tires driving around Boulder on Range Rovers in 100* July weather...

it is kind of amazing how many people in that town will spend a grand on studded snow tires, then run them all year.

My neighbor does that shit often. Irritating.
