Tips on driving in the snow?

[BobombETA]

Pack a shovel and a broken down cardboard box for when you're hung up on a snow bank.

Everything goes well untill you think you manage it and start to fool around and drifting.

Trust me, I've driven RWD for 15 winters and every single snowfall I must do it and end offroad. :)

This is the truth, whenever we are up in the mountains for a long weekend someone always gets confident and switches off 4wd to drift a corner only to end up looking like they are trying to draw an Audi emblem on the street.

You should be ok on main interstates just stay alert and be careful.

You kidding me, I almost never have my truck in 4x4 even in a foot of snow. If it looks like I will need then I will kick it in till I get past the bad area and back to 2wd. And the bed of my truck is empty save for a milk crate with my hitches and a couple of log chains in it, you non snow dwellers, should lay off the 4x4 crutch and learn to drive in the snow, some day you might get snagged some where with out it.

We live in San Diego! I get excited when I have to park in the gravel lot at the County fair so I can use 4wd hahah. I can drive in the snow/rain a lot better than people around here sometimes its just I like to overpower and I forget that the tires are frozen too.

Think of it as driving in the rain, but 100x more slippery. Give yourself lots of distance to brake, and leave a good gap between you and the cars ahead of you.
