I’m certainly glad I traded in my colossal Lexus on the 9-2x. I actually enjoy driving the Saab, whereas driving the Lexus was a comfortable but uninspiring experience. With that being said, I’m a little sad that I never got the chance to try it out in really heavy snow, or any snow for that matter. Sure, the little Saab will be fantastic in the snow, and tons of fun. But I would have to imagine the Land Lexus, with its legendary capability and 5,700lbs of snow drift flattening heft, would’ve gotten through snow that most normal cars, regardless of wheels driven or tires fitted, would have no business being out in. Perhaps not, but I wish I had the chance to find out.

This was Denver yesterday:

First measurable precipitation and cloudcover in 70 something days. The 80 enjoyed it. If you’re ever back in town during winter, lemme know.

Will do. Ironically, my mother is driving there for New Year’s and has insisted that her CT 200 will be fine without refitting the snow tires.

As long as its not icy or snowy, she’d be ok and in all honesty, snow doesn’t really stick around for more than a day or two.

Ice? No dice!
