The family & I just got back from our annual road trip to Edmonton, Canada from Chicago, IL in our 2001 Max SE. The car was great, even in really, really, cold weather(-30F), it started right up every day. Driving in the snow was another story, the car really slipped a lot on the OEM tires. Other minor issue was that one of the PIAA Extreme White fog lights went out. Incidently, last year we made the same trip and both of my PIAA Extreme White headlights went out, I had to buy generic ones along the way. I guess PIAA lights are not meant for cold weather?

The trip was approx. 4000 miles round trip, anyone else take their Max for longer trips than this?

...hey, i live in Edmonton! It got cold but not your quote of -30F , though it did go to
-30C (-18F). i know it's still damn cold!

didn't even consider riding around the winter on the oem potenza's, got some hankooks, not so much for handling/sportiness but for our packed snow & black ice type conditions.

I've driven from New York to Florida and back. No problems at all. Aprox. 3000 miles

Hey. The reason you were slipping around a lot is b/c of the OEM tires. These are the worst in wet or icy conditions. Its a known problem.
