Don't know what it would be like on steep grades but I once drove our 02 wagon with Bridgestone Blizzaks from Lansing, MI to Chicago on roads that were so snow covered there was almost no traffic on the interstate, which if you've ever driven the east side of Lake Michigan around to Chicago is generally unheard of. Snow will usually delay you in endless traffic jams for hours and hours on that route but the snow was that bad (most everyone off the road). The trip was unbelievable as the car was rock solid at any speed I dared to drive. I actually slowed down as not to scare the beejezus put of the few white knuckle drivers when I passed. But again that was fairly deep snow on flat roads. No idea what steep grades and/or deep wet snow would have been like though I am always in awe of todays modern dedicated snow tires (well except for wear). The 02 also has the stability control package.
