Me, too... must have been the same storm! (chuckle, chuckle) Haven't had to chain up since I started running Studded Snows from Late October to Mid May, but I still keep 'em in both of the beasties just in case I need 'em. The State Patrol takes one look at the Studded Snows and waives me on through... STUDS really do make Snow Tires more "adequate" than those without them.
studded snow tires KICK ASS
I plow snow and they are truly amazing
I forget when I'm done plowing and in the regular car and realize "oh crap, i have to pay attention again"
