Took the work van! No way in hell, I was going to try it. I learnmed my lesson when I tried to drive over 2 inches of slush and snow and got stuck and had to be pushed backwards out of the street. 15 inches...i dont think so.

FYI the feeling is amazing.... IF you have snow tires and are able to keep control of the car. I'm actually enjoying this car and loving it more now than ever before. This winter is like a test, and the G with winter shoes is passing with flying colors. It's truly priceless to us car enthusiast. I am glad I don't have too much money, cause than I would probably buy a beater, and would not enjoy it as much as this. Keep it safe people.

A guy in a white coupe got stuck just outside my building today. He was on the stock 18 rims, so i assumed he was on summer tires. Based on the honking, im thinking the 5 cars behind him were pissed off.

good to hear that the G rwd with snow tires did well in the snow... I wanted the rwd but after seeing a friend's rwd with snows loosing control many times. i decided that i needed the awd. It all comes down to how u drive, i didn't want to hold back on having fun just because theres snow out... which is why i went with the X.

YOU couldn't be any more wrong i'm actually trying to get some feedback if you read a few more posts you would have seen my post that said "I have an Evo now and i'm looking to get a G35 coupe." Thats why I was wondering how everyone was doing.

I dunno...it hasn't been out of the garage in a month....the RWD Exploder is doing just fine though. I never even bothered to switch to AWD except to back out.

i havent even cleaned my car off! in about 2 inches of snow i was going sideways.... for like 3 blocks .... the car is very well balanced so it was quite simple to control.... the summer tires suck in the winter.... i guess with winter tires it would be better.... i have a beater.... i kno winter tires would be cheaper... but i dont wanna take out any curbs or i dont want any one crashing in to my G... also i think the brembos are a lil over active in the snow.... anyone else think so?
