Have you ever driven in a nasty snowstorm?

I've driven in so many here in the Chicago area in my 18 years of driving, that it's really no big deal for me 😂.

The worst was when my son and I drove from the Twin Cities back to Milwaukee. The entire front grill of my car iced over and my engine started to overheat a bit.

This is the picture I took after driving for three hours. It was a coat of ice you couldn’t chip off.


It was really odd because clearly there was ice conditions. Two wheel drive cars had issues and many were off the road. But a lot of us had grip.

I live on the easy coast now where we really don’t have that bad of a winter. I just traded in my Prius for a CR-V and was watching “winter” car reviews.

I would have bought the Forester I’d i still lived in the Midwest. I enjoy going out on those bad snowy nights and driving. The Forester has a mode now that looked damn impressive in the deep snow.
