The best vehicle I’ve ever had in the snow was pretty small - a (2001?) Mercury Cougar. I live in Minnesota and I remember staying at a girlfriend’s apartment overnight during a snow storm. The next day we had someplace to be and she was really worried we weren’t going to be able to get out of the parking lot because people were needing to shovel out their big trucks.

I told her it wasn’t a problem and just rocked my way out of the space and on we went. Snow tires are amazing, and it’s incredible to me how few people get them here.
