not to bash the car any more than i already do (), but my svx handled awful in the snow last year. i go snowboarding at least once a week, and its like a 2 hour drive to get to the mountains from where i live, and it was really bad in the svx last winter. i usually take off work when there's powder coming down, so i'm always driving on unplowed roads. on the way up, my best friend goes "i'm going to die... in your car... we're both going to die", and it really kinda felt that way considering the car couldn't really drive in a straight line after a turn. so among other problems, eventually i just bought a jeep. i was sick of taking out my 96 bronco to drive in 4" of snow, getting 8 miles a gallon, just to feel safe. its a car... i woudn't care if it had 6 wheels and it was awd, its not stable.
