I was mildly surprised last winter. We had a 9 1/2" snowfall and they
had not yet plowed my condo complex. It came time for me to leave for
work and I was as I said mildly surprised when my 2014 Ford Taurus FWD
only drove right through it to the street which had been plowed.

It came with Michelin all season tires and they seem to do well in the
snow of course being FWD helps a lot.


We had a Jetta for four years in Germany, with lots of snow, and another Jetta now -
both front wheel drive only. The little buggers can handle snow pretty well, although
the manual transmission helped a lot on the earlier one.

It's snowing here again. I suppose we're on our way to the 6-8" we're supposed to
get. They were at least partially right on the forecast last night. They said the
rain would change to snow o/a 8-9am. It just changed.
