Winter driving
I am considering a 450h and live in the Boston area. Having owned both RWD and AWD vehicles
and lived here all of my life I am a little wary. I always run 4 snows on my cars and certainly gotten through New England winters with RWD cars so it wouldn't be a deal breaker. I have owned a couple of SC 430s and got through the winter with both but not ideal.
Has anyone driven through last winter with the newest 450h? If so I would appreciate any comments on your experience.
Thanks,

I have a 4G and went through last winter in Pittsburgh. I thought about going with snows but never purchased. The all-seasons worked far better than I would have imagined. Like the last poster said, with the weight of the battery pack over the rear wheels traction was never a problem. I drove through at least 3 storms with 2 to 3 inches on the road and never had a problem.
