I have been driving in the sideways snow yesterday (North wind 30-40mph all day) and in the slushy after effects today.. Whole front of the truck was frozen over yesterday and she ran like a champ. I have noticed no ill effects what so ever. (2012 FX4 Eco)
My red truck now looks white from all the salt, sand, dirt, road grime thrown up on it today.

I see alot of snow out there. I'm actually a little nervous venturing out as I've never driven a 2 wheel drive truck in the winter. Actually, this is my first truck. I'm going to have to go out and see how it handles in the snow.

No snow here. 75 degree weather in south Florida. I am sure the ECO will do fine in any kind of weather.

I don't see why it would cause isssue. The intercooler on my old vw jetta was about 8 inches from the ground and exposed. I would throw on a set of winter tires and plow through some deep snow. Fun times.
