snow time

Look I have been posting about my winter tires and I live in Minnesota. You will be fine as long as you use common sense. I am lucky to have an old accord to drive if the snow is really bad but if you get a really bad snowstorm it won't matter. My dad has a truck and it was struggling in 18" of snow because the side roads weren't getting plow very often.

The easiest way to know if you can make it through the snow is if it is deeper than the bottom of your car you will get stuck. If you don't want a salty car than don't drive it in the snow.

If you do drive it in the snow try and find a car wash that offers unlimited for a monthly price. We have a good touch free one here that offers unlimited monthly washes for a straight fee. No idea if where you are moving has anything like that but all things to keep in mind.
