Dumbest statement of the year....so far
In the short term plowed roads can be more dangerous as it may expose the
packed down ice layer at the bottom. However, once the ice layer is exposed, it begins to melt and, over the longer term, the plowed road is much safer. Snow tires don't work on ice. They need snow for the tread to grab. The snow can have some adhesion to ice. So, in some cases unplowed roads offer more traction. Amen! "Scotty" wrote in message ...

The first post on the subject is as follows... "Otherwise we're approaching the 1 foot mark for snow. I just took the Tribeca out for a ride...modern 4 wheel drive rocks!

Keep in mind that when most roads are plowed by the local DOT, they put down
sand or magnesium chloride to cut down on the ice danger. You may laugh all you want. Rest assured, hell has no snow or ice on it's roads. Amen! "Scotty" wrote in message ...

Seems to me that if you have a 4WD, it's really not an issue. I never had any problems with my old CJ7 either on ice, thinly covered ice, plowed streets??, or fairly deep stuff. Snow tires don't work on ice. They need snow for the tread to grab. The snow can have some adhesion to ice. So, in some cases unplowed roads offer more traction. Well, I took a long slide on ice once with my Jeep... part of the road flooded then froze over.. maybe 100 feet or so.. just put it in reverse and gently applied some gas. Came to stop without hitting the pole at the end of the road. -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

I'm just judging what Robboid has said. It is true, sometimes plowed roads
are worse than unplowed. After they get packed down by traffic, it can be a nightmare. The roads in hell are plowed with good intentions. Amen! |

Seems to me that if you have a 4WD, it's really not an issue. I never had any problems with my old CJ7 either on ice, thinly covered ice, plowed streets??, or fairly deep stuff. Your CJ7 is really 2 WD unless it has LSD (limited slip differentials) or locking differentials. If you stop on an slick icy road going uphill and try to take off again you never will in "4WD" or "2WD" with conventional differentials. Conventional differentials turn the wheel with the least resistance, they're useless in real slick going, even if you have 4WD.
