Blizzard in Denver

My new X was AMAZING in the snow here. Not a skid or a spin out to be found. I was driving around cars spewed all over the roads - it was like a parking lot here. It did great on the inclines, zipping past numerous cars spinning their wheels and even rolling backwards. I really felt like I was in the same class as the huge 4X4s driving around. The only thing it couldn't do was get into my garage through the two feet of snow pack in the driveway. Looks like I'll be digging out tomorrow.
I'm REALLY loving my car today!

That's awesome. I was on the last plane out of Denver this morning. What a mess.

Do you have the stock all-seasons or did you add snow tires?

That's a mode I'd like to run in all year around!

I have stock tires and they did really well.
The only thing the snow mode does is start in second gear instead of first. It does really help, though.
