Kansas City blizzard

[Janguli]

I have a 2020 GT1 AWD new all season tires. I've had my complaints but after almost five years with this car without any mechanical problem and now driving back and fourth to work directly in the face of the blizzard hitting Kansas City all I can say is this car is pretty amazing. I passed Jeeps, various SUVs, numerous front wheel drive vehicles that had gotten stranded on the day before the blizzard, the stinger never had a hesitation of getting stuck. Then had a repeat performance during the actual blizzard. Thirty minute drives under normal condition so I was not just around the corner.

That's good to hear! I'm sure someone will be along to tell you how much more effective dedicated snow tires would be than "Three Seasons"/"No Seasons", but having run "superior" snow tires on a very analog RWD coupe, I think I'd still take the extra axle of traction on all seasons.

Just don't forget that it's only AWD when you're accelerating...great for getting off the line and unstuck, but won't help much when braking.
