What's the best snow/ice car, SUV or truck?

Your vehicle should be good in snow with the proper tires. I would suggest you purchase 4 winter tires, such as Michelin X-ICE or similar on their own steel rims. Your grip and control should increase dramatically, as many readers and posters have found. Do NOT buy “Performance Winter Tires”; these are sold fo high performance cars, but are not all that good in snow.

Aside from the winter tires and some lessons in winter driving (Try AAA), you should do as well as anybody.
