TCS on ice no fun - I was up in the mountians last year going up to my friend cabin on a snowboarding trip. And the driveway is on a steep hill which was covered in ice. This driveway was about 400ft long. Everytime I tried to go up it the wheels would spin and the TCS would cut in to control that. It would cut in so much that it basicly it would cause the car to slow and become slower and then it would shudder slightly till you would just stop on the hill. I never made it past 3/4 of the hill. That was with a running start. So I has to spend 15 minutes in 5F tempatures putting chains on to get up a 400foot hill. TCS sucks
