I liked the part where you talked about the thaw the next day. Around here, any thaw wouldn't happen until the next month. The last time I tried to drive on snow and ice with a front engine rear wheel drive car and summer tires was with my old fox body Mustang. Any application of the accelerator pedal would be met with a sideways slide off of the crown in the road toward the ditch.
