I thought that i should probably add that i live in Canada. It snows here all year round, ya know- so that should add to my credibility. haha. Also, i thought of a nice analogy for ya. Walk out into hip deep snow and you're up to your hips in it. Walk out into that same snow with snowshoes on and you're walking nearly on top of it. Similar with wheels on a car to a certain extent.
