And I'm one of those dudes that has 43,000 on my RS-A's too! Seems like with the Maxima as long as your careful I'd say the car is above average with heavy snow. I think some people are overconfident as on my ride there was an S80 T6 riding my butt and running lights. I know RWD with 4 snows is a better setup but I guess FWD with all-season is an economical solution to getting around in foul weather.
