When I bought my X, the sales rep took me to their 'off-site' lot and let me drive around through unplowed snow. I drove it into a snow bank because he told me it would not get stuck. It DID get stuck in 4 hi, so I dropped the x-fer case to low and crawled right out. The sales rep thought he was going to be made to look like an ass. Other than that, I haven't had any REAL experience with snow. I have to take it back to my hometown in western PA where REAL mountains exist. There we have drifts and fun mining roads to play on in the snow. My concern now is with the 1/2 to 1/4 tread left on my stock BFG's. I hope that's enough to get me through this winter.
