Or any number of other things. Right, I hear you, but the person that knows what they are doing handles the situation. If you grow up seeing slush freeze you know how to handle it, or if a plow buries your car in crud, etc. all I am saying is that you can’t blame the car for everything. Sure, some cars simply don’t belong in snow, and you can’t blame blame them a bit, but wheee I grew up virtually every car had the deal with all the cases you mention, and more, every winter. And only a few drivers got stuck, and they learned.
Yeah, but even the snow plows get stuck sometimes!

@Crissa I wasn't saying that seasoned snow drivers never get stuck (but I do think that your example is a pushing it a bit); I was saying (or trying to say) that the seasoned snow driver knows what to do and doesn't need help to get unstuck. Part of it is not driving into a condition or location you are unsure of, but your previous examples satisfy that and still happen. There are some conditions that no one is going to fare well in, like freezing rain. If you start a slide and end up on a slant that is where you will stay until someone comes to get you - but you decided to drive in freezing rain to begin with. I do no think that we disagree here. I just don't think that you can blame the car.

Outside of all the silliness people post with the Cybertruck I am calling this point in our timeline the " Welcome to Whose Line Is It Anyway? The show where everything is made up and the points don't matter. "

stock AT tires are still better in the snow than the stock AS tires?
