Trevor,
Having driven some in the snow here in western Virginia, I have never experienced the situation you described. Like you initially did, I have always started off with low RPM's or gone directly to the "manual" button to start off in 2nd gear. However, Pete's comments do make sense to me. Perhaps is is somewhat like the anti-lock brakes - one should exercise the capability from time to time to keep things freed up?

Harry

PS: I like the idea of a "country dance". Sounds like fun!!
