Dig It
If you go to Target, Home Depot or any of the other big chains that sell the Toro Electric Shovel you will probably find the same thing that I did...that it is SOLD OUT. Why? Because this is one of the most helpful tools to have ever been placed on the market. It works fairly well on small... -
Surprisingly Excellent
This is review written with Montana winter experience. The reviews were generally good with this item so I bought one, mainly for the convenience of easily cleaning the drawbridge, walkways, entry, and in front of my garage without a shovel. This device is pre-assembled, easily carried,...
I have a driveway that is or almost 2 years old. We've recently had a lot of snow here. Parts of the driveway now have ice on it from being snow plowed incorrectly.
Try to avoid salt all together. Salt (sodium chloride) is good on ice and bad on concrete. Use an ice melter that contains calcium chloride, potassium chloride, or magnesium chloride. Whatever you use just be sure to keep the excess off the...

Chracteristics of a good snow car (not a what car thread ...
The weight of a Caddy makes it plow through snow banks, but the weight also keeps objects in motion in motion.
You never said (nor does your profile) where you live or the amount of snow, but for me living in upstate NY a FWD stick with four really good snows can out run my 4-Runner. FWD can pull the front end around a corner, think 15 mph neighborhood, while a RWD pushes it forward relying on the rudders up front to change the direction.

Stick shift. Snow tires. After that, I don't really care about much else. Of course, I learned how to drive (first started driving) in the snow in a Crown Victoria with bald summer performance tires. I don't buy into all that AWD/4WD nonsense. Which isn't nonsense if you are talking about Colorado or serious off roading. But I live in the flatlands of Illinois and stick to streets and parking lots. As long as the snow isn't so high that I'm pushing it, I'm good.
I learned to drive in the snow in RWD. I feel I have more control over it if it were to get a bit squirrely. The Speed3 handled like a reardrive in the snow which I loved. My Buick which was supposed to be the winter beater & was terrible. I did not feel confident that it would react how I wanted it to should something go wrong.
We'll see how the Si reacts, Blizzaks go on this week.
I live just south of Lake Michigan. It doesn't drop feet of snow at once, but a few at a time. The local municipality isn't excited about clearing the streets so the hardest part of the trip is leaving the city. I figure its the momentum and tire issue. I suspect her car is easier to get going, while my car is easier to stop. A WRX would probably make everybody happy.
I had a 70 Monte Carlo. The heater was awesome. To have a heater like it today it would need a waiver and a bunch of "Danger: Vents are very hot" stickers all over the interior.
It was nicknamed The Snow Beast - not because it was exceptional in the snow - but because one time on the way home from school with my sister in the pass seat I went down a closed road by accident and smashed right thru a plow bank (big pile of frozen snow to block the road). The car didn't even slow down much and had no damage -my sister got a bloody nose smacking her face on the dash. She gave it the name.

Where the heck is that? Eldo will show you...we're on Santa Rosa Island, a skinny little barrier island 48 miles long just south of Pensacola and southwest of Gulf Breeze, a small town southwest of Pensacola. Got it? Just wanted to be sure! We're in the southwest section of the panhandle. Ok, enough of that silliness. We are staying at the Fort Pickens Campground run by the national parks system. The whole area is called the Gulf Islands National Seashore. The road out to the park/barrier island is very low to the water so it's subject to periodic flooding. Sometimes they have above average tides coupled with strong southerly winds and the main road--the ONLY road will flood. They say that it could be minor flooding and you could still drive your car through it, or major "overwashes", where you could get stranded in the park for a couple of days until the water recedes, and the park crew cleans up. Hm-m-m-m, very interesting! We didn't ask how often that happens...we're rather adventuresome that way! Right now, we see no signs of that, and they have quite the warning system to let you know when or if that might happen. Our site was big enough that it could fit our 40 foot rig, but not a whole lot of room at the end of the pad for the car. You do have to drive around a bit to find something to fit bigger rigs, but their are spots available. There are five campground loops. No laundry facilities, but adequate showers. There is so much hurricane damage here, it looks kind of bleak. The plants are starting to come back, but there's no coming back for the hundreds of trees killed by the salt water of Mother Nature's ocean storms....there are hiking paths, or you can bike for miles along the road bike path running parallel to the beach. The beaches are in great condition, they are snow white. If you bike along the main road, it looks like snow drifts alongside. I think they plow the road to clear the sand just like we plow snow back in the midwest. We did...
