It is truly amazing how many suburbanites drive these SUV crossovers and think that somehow helps their stopping ability.

Tire, tires, tires and technique are the only things that really matter when it comes to stopping if you are going too fast. Despite many years of four wheel drive ladder frame vehicles, I do all my winter driving right now in a two wheel drive high clearance vehicle. Is is, however, shod with KO2 tires which are Mountain Alpine rated and make all the difference in the world.

Many, many years ago, we had just gotten a heavy snow fall. I was on W bound I-96 and it was virtually traffic free. The 3 lanes were covered with about 4 or 5 inches of snow and the only evidence of traffic were the tire tracks I was following in the right lane.

I was doing maybe 20 MPH when some dumb chick came up behind me and started tailgating me, evidently she thought she would speed me up. She finally gave up and decided she was going to pass me. I'm watching her in my rear view mirror as she attempted to pull into the lane on the left. No sooner did she make her move when she did a complete 360 spin and ended going up the steep embankment on our right.........

That was the funniest sight that I will never forget..........

I am the car on the interstate that is at least 500 yards away from any body else. Traction control computer in the Chrysler 300 is awesome!
