Let It Snow

For those of you concerned about this car in the snow...Don't be! With the correct tires the G will go go go. Got hit in Indy with a record 8 inch snow fall that fell during the day. That meant plowing through rush hour traffic with about 6 ot 7 inches already on the ground.

I ran Infiniti's stock Goodyear Eagles and plowed right along. (Except in all the traffic jams.) With 4 inch clearance on the car I still plowed through 7 inches of mushy, rutty, slippery snow. I switched traction control off and on as needed. I managed to pretty well pack the lower radiator inlets in the front bumper with snow

I think the car has the right amount of torque and weight to make it pretty manageable.

We got lucky because the snow was light. I've gotten stuck in a pathfinder before when the snow was over the bumper....
