I did a long driving trip to Alaska years back (in a Pontiac Grand Am mind you), and the main items I noticed are:
- Snow is worse; but you may be okay without chains dependig on whether you re in Anchorage/Juneau or if your in the countryside (chains required then).
- Mobil 0W40 or 5W30 is acceptable - see mobil site for details
- i agree with last post; uncle in Yukon Canada uses 70/30 coolant to water as a mandatory mix like most residents. this will aid in hard starts and engine longevity
- Snow driving up there is simply that - snow driving. they don't complain about roads/highways of ice, but deep snow driving. patient slow acceleration driving is the way to counter in a powerful FWD 9-5.
Thank Saab for winter mode!
enjoy your move!
