Edit: My first car was an RWD Toyota Previa minivan with all seasons. I drove across Canada in the middle of winter through some of the worst storm and snow you can imagine on my 18th birthday by myself over 3 days. I drove 19 hours driving the first day, 12 hours the second day and 18 hours the third. It's a miracle I'm alive but it did teach me how to drive in snow! I swear I'm not making this up, the police had to route my fan into the ditch around a full flipped 18 wheeler in the middle of the transcanada highway.
Canadians can drive ANYTHING in the snow. |
250" annually? Try doubling that (depends on area). 360 degree I look around, I only have mountain. Few yrs, it snowed in July... and I'm not joking on this one. 2yrs ago, it was freaking snowing/raining til end June. Now, try driving in that condition.
