I drove my 2k2 in the snow... hmm not bad at all... the problem is it has too much torque with no traction control... and i have to start from the died stop like grand-papa or grand-mama... i drive on "1" like 25-30 mph... not more because i came from Greece (Rhodes) which means no snow... im not pro to drive in the snow!! i miss greece winter (60-65 degrees and very little rain)...

Dusting Maximas in the snow?

I'd love to snag one of those...or a WRX wagon.

Drove in the snow today too. Got around just fine. I have new Nitto 450's on the front. I just watch out for the people who SHOULD NOT be driving. You know, the ones that cant drive on a clear 75 degree day. Today is a good JEEP day tho.

With a set of Blizzaks and traction contol, my Max handles the snow just fine. Snow tires are a must have if you live in an area of the country where it snows like it does here in NY state.

It is funny seeing all of these post coming from the Bel Air, MD area. I graduated from Bel Air back in 88 before I joined the Navy. I currently live in Italy and can not wait to move back stateside. Enjoy the snow guys. It very rarely snows here so I get to ride my motorcycle year round for the most part.
