Here in NY/CT we got 12-15" yesterday and I had to work late. Drove home on snow pack with 6-8" and car was very stable. I have the Saab snow-tire package and it was great. I never truly appreciated the headlight wipers but the first time I ran them I thought I hit my high-beams it was that much of a difference. When I finally got close to home my local streets hadn't been plowed yet - the Viggen tackled the main hill that three times stranded me in my old Maxima (no snows on that car). At one point I hit a drift in the road that hit the front air dam / bumper and flew up on the hood but the Viggen just plowed through. Downside - GROUND CLEARANCE, traction wasn't a problem but I did feel like I plowed most of 684 and my side streets....
I thought when it snowed I might regret not getting an A4-quattro but if I made it through last night I'm sold!
