People suck at driving, snow just makes it more apparent. Snow tires are optimized for snow and ice, but to claim all seasons are inadequate is foolish. 

In nearly two decades of winter driving in snowy climates, daily driving rural roads for much of it, I have not encountered a single road condition where AS tires did not provide at least enough traction to get moving and stop, given you drive appropriately. Yes, you get more traction with winters, which means your…

COTD right here folks ^^^^^

Ghoing, ghoing, ghone...

Hanging idle. Hate it when that happens.

I’ve driven all season and winter tires both in the snowy northern Midwest. Wet snow, slick snow, fluffy snow, wintry mix, white out conditions, you name it. I know no one outside of the area will believe it, but I also grew up in an area of Wisconsin with lots of valleys and the associated grades that go along with…

All seasons are usually adequate for driving in snow. This is evidenced by the fact that most people who have all seasons survive the winter without getting in accidents.

Regardless of season, I drive assuming that almost every other driver is incompetent behind the wheel because they mostly are. 

Ok first off, driver mod is absolutely a substitute for traction. Driver mod is a substitute for most things.

Yes, they are.

They’re fine as long as you know what you’re doing. Are they ideal, no, but they’re fine. You don’t NEED winter/snow tires.

Jesus, it's not that fucking hard. Stay off they gas and you can drive pretty much anything pretty much anywhere.

What if they built a car around a system like that, we could call it the Volt.

sort of. oversteer feels cool, understeer feels helpless.

They are smaller, lighter, cheaper, and shorter from the ground. Shorter means lower hoods, which can mean better aero. They are less efficient, which gm gets around with cylinder de activation, and need more displacement for the same power, which doesn’t matter outside of racing where displacement is restricted.

Once it has removed any extraneous money from your wallet, it forces you to drive in a more economical manner since you can no longer afford a fuel stop.

If you have young techs abusing the test drive, then you have a business culture that allows employees to do whatever they want as long as it’s not in front of the customer. If you run a tight ship and all the employees know what’s expected of them and that any serious infraction (like taking a customer’s car over 90…

Bullshit. Loud pipes just piss off people that don’t ride. Piss off enough of them and they complain, resulting in anti-motorcycle legislation. Pretty big price to pay for your noisemaker. The fact you’ve never gotten a ticket just means the cops don’t enforce DOT noise regs. - FXDL owner

Jason has the best answer here! It’s the most Andrew car of them all, and would likely survive the apocalypse that we all know is just around the corner.

You’d motor out to the serene middle, climb on the roof with your pals, eat, drink, swim, and flip over from the too-high CG.

Boring? REALLY?
