Default 90 VDP Winter Driving

234k Miles, Engine and transmission bulletproof. Defroster, Heater and Rear defroster all working. Heated seats, low but work. Besides the wiper freezing the visibility is amazing. Had I had chains, this wouldn't have happened.
I had a running start to make it up my driveway, the ice won. I only needed 3 inches from a wench. Very proud of my 20 year old cat.

Kind of an inspiration, actually. Though, you are still a braver man in these conditions than I.

Very nice,
I tried that and I managed to get all 4 tires off the ground. Lots of shoveling and about 50 lbs of salt and hot water later I made it up the drive.
