the GX is impressive
A couple days ago I had to go to cvs at 3:00 am, that night we had a big snow storm the snow was like 1foot+ and roads were not shoveled yet. Nobody was on the roads everything was white. I was flying, the GX was very impressive. the traction control did its job really well as i tried to do some drifting what i sometimes do with my bimmer, but the car correct its trajectory like magic. Man, this car is unstoppable, i was really confident taking curves and it was like the is noting on the roads. I used to always complain about this car when I drive on the highway when it is windy and how the wind play with it, but now I know what this car was built for.

Just don't get to rambuncious with the GX. It is after all a tall SUV. I have seen many SUV's upside down off the road no doubt due to the driver thinking their SUV handles like it was on rails.

Yep, I have experienced the same thing. When the weather gets bad this is the SUV you want. I find myself driving too fast for the conditions because it handles so well, it is like the roads have nothing on them. I tried one night last year when we had about 6 inches on the ground and was still snowing, nothing was plowed or salted - just to see if anything would make it slip. Nothing stopped it, drove great even on large hills. A jeep in front of me went sideways and was all over the place!
