9-5 Winter Driving

Today is the first "Noreaster" (not much of one from what I am hearing though)that I've experienced in New England since moving to CT last Spring. With such a mild winter I had yet to take my Califonia 9-5 (2003 2.3lpt) through its paces in winter driving. I am quite impressed! I have Winterforce snow tires on and with the combination of ESP, ABS, "Winter" mode and the snow tires, the car will go anywhere. No problems on the freeway and the unplowed country roads. My experience left a huge grin on my face as I passed SUVs and cars struggling to even stay on the road, let alone get moving. Most of the country roads I drive on had about 3-4 inches of accumulation and the car was very stable and reasurring as I moved through it. Had to share...Not we have sleet coming down, turning to rain tomorrow. Fun while it lasted.
