Snow Drifting

finally alaska has snow. the ground suddenly turned from wet to icey when i got done watching the final Matrix installment. it snowed the next day.

i must say im surprised at its ability and i think it even rivals the xt6 in snow blasting. ofcourse, the 6 had studs and the X doesnt, so it gets extra points. i only lost traction twice in motion, but got it back the first time.

people are still driving like crack-heads. mostly large trucks that want to own the road. too bad for them cuz i blasted a large chevy and two F-250s last night. i think the newer Audis actually own it around here though.

almost zero slippage in manual-2 mode, and i can pretty much leave it in manual-3 for the duration of the winter. i downshifted to 1 and my rear-right wheel spun out so i dont think thats a good idea.
abs is functioning quite exceptionally as well.

snowy xt6/svx stories?
