you dont know how good of an investment snow tires are until you have them on. its like night and day. I got a set of Michelin alpin. definetly would have saved you from that snow bank.

I spent thousands of dollars over the past 5 years up in CT buying winter cars/beaters just to avoid that. The sc is useless in the winter, and further more the rocks/salt screw up the paint bad. Its worth it to me to have another car just to protect my baby

Was the oil pan and rad/condensor fine form the impact?

I'd never drive my sc in that kinda weather... thats why I have a fwd with abs. I'm sure your use to it though in the state your in, happy it wasn't worse.

This is why RWD only belongs in Southern California, Everyone else that lives in a place with bad snowy/rainy weather needs to stick to FWD cars. LOL!

No way I'd drive my SC in the snow. It's slick in rain, much less snow.

I have a Mercedes I won't drive in snow either (but has great trac control so rain is all good).

When it snows...... I take the AWD Jag. 4wd snow drifts baby.......
