We just got 8 inches of snow on monday..on top of the 4 we already had.
A good tip for you once in a blue moon snow drivers, when coming to a stop and you slide and abs is kicken in, slide it up in to Neutral, helps in stopping better

lol, I've never heard that one before, snowrider. I would think leaving it in gear would be better since you'll have SOME resistance from the transmission in gear, versus minimal if its in neutral.

i wish we had snow here in philadelphia its just raining for 3 days straight. its not cold enough yet frown

i want to go snowboarding so bad!

and my new idea for next years calender will be a pic of my car at the bottom of blue mountan in the poconos and in goona gave my camera set to take a pic of me jumping over it off a 6 foot jump. i did it with my last car but dident think of taking a good pic, just a video. ill see if i have it on my laptop and put it up here. it looked sick as hell with the snow flying and crap.

idk if that would be allowed or not lol prob not

Neutral Always works for me, at such low speeds, you dont have the car trying to idle you forward...try it once

well, I don't know one way or the other, I just know that normally the transmission helps in deceleration (except when you're completely stopped).
