I’ve given up on trying to explain that most cars aren’t inherently great or terrible winter cars to most people, but! There is one thing that I’ve found works.

Shoe/sneaker analogy. Especially for active people. Explain to them that their awesome summer tires are like [insert top of the line running shoe] - great at…

Just ranting again...I hate fake patriotism
