The car is awesome in the snow. THe operation of the AWD is seamless. If it weren't for the light on the dash blinking, I would never know it was operating. There is a big problem however, it's called the other idiots on the road. Even though the X is great in snow, you always have to watch out for the other guy.

I'd say the majority of the idiots are SUV owners.

getting in and out of unplowed parking spaces is a breeze.

Agreed. Overconfidence = journey into the curb or ditch.

There are def a few
Most don't seem to realize you still have to be able to stop;
& with all that mass an SUV can be off in a ditch in no time...

The one thing I really miss from my previous AWD vehicles...
is the way they can pull out & merge into traffic.
Especially from a snowy side street or drive way.

The X is really amazing in the snow. But you definitely have to watch out for the other guys.

The X rocks in snow, although I dont like it with VDC on. Im use to driving my 91 Eclipse GSX so its not a problem. It does take a bit longer to change the slide direction from right to left so my mailbox went down Sat. night. Thank God it didnt put up a huge fight. No dents or scratches on the car .

Oh and the X does some killer a$$ flat-spins!!!!!!
