Default 250awd and snow

i own a 09 250 awd and i live in south dakota and we are getting dumped on with snow and with the drifts from blowing snow we currently have anywhere from 8 to 15 inches. i am very impressed with how the car performs in the snow. with the streets not being plowed till tomorrow i still needed to get around and my girls mercedes c300 4matic got stuck in the driveway bt my car got around just fine and the only other cars out were trucks and full size suvs. the biggest thing is just make sure to turn traction control off and put it in snow and hit the gas and it just goes nothing to worry about. and im just running the stock tires.
