Now put 2 adults and 2 kids in the car and tried to reverse out of the driveway straight on was a different story

Needless to say, if it's just you in the car you'll be just fine. I am more curious how you will get up and down the driveway when there is snow on the ground....
The snow isn't much of a problem, the car will be in storage

That's what I've got my old corolla (snow-rolla) for! There's a large parking area on the grass by that boat as well. It's pretty rare that we have to use it though.
