Here’s some pics from today got a foot plus of snow in CT, and the Escalade went through it like a tank. I wasn’t a huge fan of AWD at first but it’s hands down better then my previous Tahoe

I love driving my Denali in the snow although I don't really like snow for the most part. That looks like you had fun! We had an inch plus freezing rain on Christmas but nothing since then.

I enjoy driving in the snow too it’s just all the idiots that can’t drive in the snow ruin it for everybody else, this was the perfect snow it’s been so cold here and wasn’t wet just nice and light

Damn that’s crazy it’s been under 20 for the last week plus gonna warm up to the 30’s next week take all the snow you want

Lol, warm up to the 30's! I just went outside(been inside all day)the snow is up past my knees, and with the high winds the drifts are much higher. I'm down the street from the ocean, and they said coastal NJ could get up to a foot. And my damn 4wd doesn't work any more!!

When it was 25 yesterday even that felt warm lol was windy here but nothing like it was down your way, only thing good about the wind is it blew all the snow off the truck don’t even have to clean it off, damn that sux about the 4wd

Hate that white stuff :mad3:

Me too. Growing up in Louisiana, I have only seen snow a handful of times, and in I have only driven in it two or three times. But down here, when it does actually snow more than just a dusting, all hell breaks loose. 99% of businesses close, the DOT closes most major roads, especially if it has a bridge or overpass. They just aren't equipped to handle it. No snow plows, and limited sand trucks and salt trucks.

Meanwhile here in big bear a foot of snow only slows us down a bit haha. A few businesses sometimes close, but most of us are truckin it in the ski area for work anyways so we have a powder day. Though we’ve yet to see any real snow yet, and it’s january.....
