Took the X out for some snow fun!

[jacobl]

The new BFG all terrain tires are great. I was driving through 2 feet of snow part of the time. I got sucked in a ditch once because there was thick ice under the snow. I just turned the wheels and drove out. I Love this truck!

I always find it kind of amazing what the Ex can do in the snow. I work nights and its been snowing alot latly here. I have found that the all season radials seem to work better then the all terrains. It may be because they are a little thinner and thus don't float as much, however from a dead stop the AT are still better.

You should move up north then

The other day, I was going to my campsite, and it was a little deeper than I had planned. I got halfway stuck. I had been plowing through the snow..when I backed up and looked how deep it was, the spot where I stopped looked like a boat going through the water, with how the snow was pushed up. Looked like a wake. Just wished I had had my camera with me, it looked sweet.

yea im def not used to the cold... down here in baton rouge, i think it was in the 60s today... last week it hit 80... we hardly ever see snow... usually if it "snows" here everyone freaks out over tiny flakes... its a funny site to see

I guess thats a big difference living in different halves of the country. Down south, it snows a little and you feel the car slipping/sliding, you step on the brakes. Up here, when you start to slip/slide, you floor it
