[QUOTE="John Barnes, post: 692462, member: 64051"] To all: For anyone wondering how a 4x4 Trac does in snow, let me share my experience with my 4x4 XLT with stock Goodyears: I live in the Colorado mountains and this year we have experienced a tremendous amount of snow and blizzards compared to the past several years. The Trac has handled this better than any 4x4 I have ever owned over the past 30+ years. I have owned the following 4x4s: '69, '72, '84 Blazers, '75 CJ5 Jeep, '95 Grand Cherokee, '02 Grand Cherokee and an '06 Jeep Liberty. The Sport Trac is just short of amazing in snow and ice. I have driven through deep snow, packed snow, ice, up hills, down hills, etc. and the Trac is ALWAYS very sure footed. I might add that I carry no tonneau cover or any addional weigth in the back of my Trac. AND, the 4 wheel antilock disc brakes are awesome! I have had several times that the Trac has come to a smooth stop on ice where any other vehicle would have been going sideways. Now, I must add that I am quite experienced at driving in snow, so exercise caution in these conditions.... But I am impressed. MountainTrac [/QUOTE]
