"Bonnie" got snowed on for three days, that was enough for me. Eventhough the car never left the driveway, I can no longer say it has never been in the snow.

haha I am happier with the stock ss tires then the stock summer only's on the gto. I can at least get the car in and out of the garage, the GTO I couldn't even do that in snow.

What you can't see in this picture is the 1/2 inch of ice over the whole car.

We got 5" of snow a week ago, and I had to drive 30 miles each way to school and back and didnt think the stocks tires on my SS where all that bad. I have driven with worse tires before in the snow(my 86 Monte had some wide tires on the back, 255's,lol).

I used to think the same thing until I got new tires. Kelly Springfield. Now its excellent in the snow. And now that the traction control isn't working, its actually better in the snow without it.

We have a 2009 LT and a 2010LT and we have had boyh of them out in the snow and have had no problems. A litle slip here or there but that happens even with my old Corrola that my 2010 replaced.

We had a white Christmas here in Atlanta and I got around fine. We got about 7".

But, last week we got hit with another 5" Sunday night and then it got colder, so the top layer was nothing but ice. I could not even get out of my neighborhood. But I wasn't the only one. With the hills, not much was moving except a few ATV's the neighbors had. Atlanta all but shut down. Truckers were stuck on I285 for over 24 hours. I missed the days when I ran studs in eastern Washington and Montana.

No Snow

I hate my HHR in the snow. I fish tail badly. Put about 200 lbs in the back and still don't help.
