Well this has been one heck of a week .. 15-20 deg days , almost 3" of snow and Ice ...No Electricity at the house most of the time ... Trees down , multiple power poles down ...Crazzy ... Its gona take me a month strait to get all the limbs cleaned up ... living out in the country is fun , but its a mess when you loose power and have to dodge power poles and down trees just to get some food ....
The Pathfinder worked great , got a mismatched set of studded snows for the stock 16" wheels ...245-75-16 BFG Trac Edge for the rear and 245-75-16 Cooper wintermaster's for the front ...
Worked great , never had to chain up , had to drive back and forth from my folks place to mine to keep the stove stocked with wood to keep the house from freezin .. a 5 minute drive was about 30 minutes .... up / down hills thick ruts of snow etc. ... fun .... even my steep driveway was not an issue , sometimes took a couple runs at it , but made it up everytime ...
Very impressed with how the Traction control and ABS and VDC system worked ... in 4high most of the time ....
I couldnt get the Studded Forester out of the driveway ...
Never thought I could say I was dragin frame in the Pathfinder ...
At least we had a very white Christmas for the first time I can remember ...
