It’s been handling great, although I am a wuss and usually opt to work from home when it snows. But during the times when I was out, the NX was great. I came from a FWD vehicle all my life, so this was definitely a game changer for me. I also live on a steep hill and no longer have any issues making it to the top with the AWD. I did get stuck in the the snow in my driveway last week, though, but it was my own fault. My driveway is a steep uphill and I tried to go through 3-4 inches of snow. Made it part-way up, but then wheels were spinning and I was stuck in one spot. I kept trying to go up by wiggling, but no luck. Unfortunately, my NX slide sideways and I reversed into the snowbank on the side of my driveway. Caught a patch of ice and was stuck in one spot — couldn’t reverse since I was backed into the snow bank, couldn’t go forward, couldn’t open my driver-side door since I was against the snow bank. Was just awful. Luckily, the snow was soft enough that I decided to reverse and just ram into the snow bank.. thought I damaged my rear-exterior, but it turned out fine. After I was down, I was crazy enough to try another attempt and made it all the way up this time.

Thank you for the excellent report ! Sounds like a good snow car overall.

Even though the NX was out longer than the RC i have seen ZERO Nxs but have seen about 6 different RCFs and RC Fsports. I guess people here have more sporting intentions than utility. Or those people in the RCs are not married with children.

Not sure if you did but try the Center Diff Lock (button on the lower left of the dash). It applies the power 50/50 to the front and rear right off the bat. It has gotten me out of some tough spots with the RX in the past.

I've seen 5 NX's since January

1 Obsidion F-Sport
then maybe two weeks later
1 EW 200t/h
then in the last two weeks I've seen
3 200t/h NX's
EW then NGP then MRM

The F-Sport was in Richmond and the rest in Van, BC. NX's population is definitely snowballing around here

Default NX sightings

I've yet to see any in the Cleveland area. Had mine since 12/29. I've seen more on the Dealer lot.
Feel like I'm driving a one of a kind vehicle.

Zero in NC. Making negotiating somewhat difficult. Patience or travel I guess.

I took delivery on my NX on 12/26 from Metro. Being retired I don't drive the NX if the roads are bad, as I have a 2nd car.
I can't wait for better weather !

Oooh, is that what that button is for? I've seen it but never knew what it was and keep forgetting (or maybe just lazy) to look it up whenever I got home. Thanks for the info!

Same here...until today! Coincidentally I was driving mine home from picking it up out of state and within 30 miles of home I spot a nice white 200t.
