Watched those awds + fwds drop into the ditch like snakes!
4x4 was great but it's the other idiots you'd better look out for!
I almost went in once!
My yearly defensive driving certification really came in useful today!

On snow, Ice or Slush highways, my A6 Quattro with studded snows will run circles around My Ex with AT's on it... At least till I get studded snows and extra rims for the X along with front and rear lockers heh... Plus the quattro awd system is hands down the best AWD system on the market but the new 09 Subies all have the TCS added in so they should perform like the Audi's now

Pretty much all of the other AWD systems are crap...

And all those studdless tires cannot even come close to studded tires on ice

Made it back safe and I guess posted a little frustration on here.

Its just amazing that people drive the way they do in crappy weather.

No arguments soutthpaw on audi or bmw awd systems. The studded tires are good for ice but a good winter tire still can be more economical also but just don't run them all year round then their benefits defeat the costs.

No it was just funny to see the people pass you and the other people in the group of vehicles(the caravan). About a mile later you would see them in the ditch.
