it’s not a matter of getting the hang of it. Having to keep my foot in the exact 4mm range to prevent the reverb from kick in, or the motors from trying to accelerate, will cause fatigue. Not just physically but mentally. I drive into the mountains several times a month to go skiing and when it’s snowing, it can be exhausting.
That hasn't been my experience at all, and I'm 61 years old. I'm not sure why you are having trouble with it.

My 2 cents driving with the All Season tires in the snow: works just fine. I live in the Sierra Nevada mountains and recently crossed a high pass in a blizzard, for a two-hour drive in 6 inches snow, unplowed. Firstly, I was surprised that the chain-control cops let me through, without the snowflake emblem on the rubber, but they just waved me through, unlike everyone else (Go CT!). Second, I raised the vehicle height to medium, because of ice buildup below. I just drove normal, no hot-rodding or skidding and sliding around turns. Most traffic was moving 25 mph, and I passed many times, keeping an average of 45 mph. At all times the vehicle kept good traction on all four tires, but also, that is the way that I drive. Keep in mind that this was fresh snow, not hard ice. When I remember at the start of a drive, I use the traction control feature, and have found it really good. Normally I hate traction control (as on my Fords), but with the CT there have been some very good experiences to avoid hydroplaning at high speed in water, so I assume the logic is good for the snow. My tires have 11,000 miles, and I treat the vehicle like a tractor when motoring in the snow. I am typically the highest velocity vehicle on the road, but not due to acceleration/deceleration - just high average. My offroad driving experience level is that of "professional", but I am not a racer. I would never use FSD or cruise control in snow, ice, or on water-covered roads.
