Let's see a FWD car do this

An April storm dumped over a foot of snow overnight. It wasn't quite as deep around my wagon because I shoveled last night but the snow gets deeper after I drive over the ice (you can hear it). Then I hammered it in 2nd gear and started plowing snow.

AWD FTW!

I like your laugh, a/s/l/p?

(just kidding, badass video, but I'd be afraid of damaging my bumper)

Yeah, it does go away when the car warms up fully. I probably shouldn't have been so harsh on the engine, but I didn't want to get stuck.

It does. 2 hours east is the Sierra Nevadas.

I miss Sacto's accessibility to the mountains.

Great Vid! Thanks For Sharing. I Took My Car To The Snow For The 1st Time The Other Day And Couldn't Believe How Amazing The Awd Was. I Never Knew It Could Do All That! I Had Some Large 4x4's Saying I Couldn't Get Through Certain Areas. Well..............i Locked The Diff, And It Was Just Too Easy! I Think They Changed Their Minds!
