Good thing you aren't driving your truck in the snow much

the funny thing is that my truck actually does surprisingly well in light snow even with covered roads. as long as you are light on the throttle and don't make sporadic turns or other actions it does actually pretty decent. funny how well it does with street tires. good ole michelins.
