I take your point about flooring it, Klaus. I`ll try that at a time when I`m not in heavy traffic & risking sliding sideways into the car beside me.. The Gislaveds are going on the car this week. I`d called the dealer over a week ago & was told their winter tire installations were booked for a month. Having them installed locally.
Maybe AWD is worth it but I have to say I had a `63 544 equipped with snows that made it thru a Minnesota blizzard(I mean "blizzard"!) back in `78 when there were cars in the ditch everywhere. That car was unstoppable!
