Who needs AWD in the snow? Heres my photoshoot
I live in LI, NY. Me and my friend drove up to Stratton, VT to go snowboarding yesterday. Left around 3:30am, got there by 7:45am. Temperature was around 10 degrees there and the local roads had snow on them. I have an FX35 AWD but it kind of needs brake pads and I just felt like driving the lexus so I took that.

when you hit 4inches and above of fresh snow fallling with your all season then you can say your good cause when it fresh and not a week old snow it diff. and that why you have an FX35 AWD to drive. plus your from NY you know how deep it get out there. but nothang less nice pix

I have a 95 bronco too. I had an 06 g35 coupe that I drove on bridgestone potenzas all winter a few years ago too. I guess I just know the winters pretty good now

i've slipped and slid in snow with my AWD is250...usually taking turns at slow speeds... even with Snow ECT on.
I have the normal allseason tires... had to drive thru about 140miles of heavy falling snow from Cleveland to Buffalo NY on my way back to toronto...
it was kind of scary having seen about 12 cars in the ditches off the I90
