Beauty!

And that's precisely why I have studded snow tires for my Cutlass for that kind of weather. It was already unstoppable in two and a half feet of snow last winter on nearly bals all season Uniroyals. I can't wait to see how it performs this year on studs.

that was supposed to say "bald" by the way.

Wasn't that a Subaru? If so, it has 4-wheel drive and there's no reason why it couldn't have made it up the hill in that little bit of snow. That was just dumb from the start and only kept getting worse.

I just hate how all the buses are running around with tire chains on, even on the highway. Just ruins the streets especially since they are surprisingly clear.

I tell ya... Seattle looks like fun. It snows and just from that happening it becomes a spectator event. I know I would have been out on foot, probably brought a thermos and dressed warmly... and maybe even have brought a folding chair and large cardboard cards so I can give scores, judging the attempts. We don't have that kind of fun around here and drive-bys aren't good spectator events.

Okay... nobody has brought up the obvious question so I will bite... LOL There's this white stuff they carry around on trucks and it's sprinkled on the roads... It's called Salt. Around here, they even spray water mixed with the stuff on the roads before the flakes even fall... it's called Brine... and when it's time... everything's fine. We don't even have 40 degree inclines like that urban ski slope the genius was trying to ascend... y'know the physics major at the wheel who was storing up all that potential energy until all loss of momentum then traction... but I'll digress. Maybe.

what a video lol.... ouch bigtime there!

Good tires and some knowledge would have gone a long way...
