Exactly, seems you were managing too but agreed with more snow it may get tricky, the same can be said about the civics and corollas on all seasons out there. I actually like this setup because you don't push your luck and drive in a sane way. You should see the range rover guys when in snows, what they don't realize is you cannot stop that truck when it snows. I see the same thing in my x5 with all seasons, it's very capable but due to weight it takes a bit longer to stop
