I learned my lesson riding a Honda in the snow. I am wondering, though,
how my 4WD Toyota Tacoma will do in the snow. It has
all-terrain/all-season tires, I think, plus a manual transmission, but,
of course, it suffers from the typical pickup truck ailment of not a lot
of weight on the rear tires. I only got the 4WD model because a number
of on-line reports indicated it did well in the snow. We'll see.

The thing you have to remember about 4wd is if you lose the back end,
the front is probably going with it. I hockey pucked my Jeep a few
times on the beltway before I figured out that I should leave it in 2
wheel until I needed it.

I usually don't wander out until one of the neighbors at the entrance to
our little subdivision emails everyone that the state road there has
been hit at least once by the plow. At that point, I decide whether to
pay the $100 or so to have our driveway plowed. If the truck does as I
hope, I might avoid a few "plow jobs."

The Beltway is a great place to avoid during snowstorms.

Are you talking about the guy that owns the Maryland Red barn?
