Finally we got some major snow here. Last night I brought the car out to a large empty parking lot and tried to familiarize myself to its snow behavior. Well it wasn't nearly as bad as I had expected. The tail kicked out only when I turn and _diliberately_ step on gas. If I let off gas before making a turn it never fishtail. I could not drive too fast in the lot, so all these were done with a speed of 25mph.
And I've yet to mount the snows. The car now has Goodyear eagle all weather on it. The snow tires were in the trunk tho, which I belive helped adding some traction for the rear wheels.
