We got our turn for a blizzard in Edmonton today (not as bad as you guys in ON). I found that the best combination was Snow mode - ON, VCS - OFF.
This allowed me to steer the back end with the throttle, without overdoing it.

Anyone else try it?

 

Yeah, we got hammered today in Edm! I actually left it on normal. I tried it in "snow mode" but it cut too much power to the wheels. I'm fortunate to have the awd is 350 and I must say...it made driving in this weather fun! Normally with my previous car, a rear wheel drive bimmer, I would have to park across the steet, walk into my cul de sac to get to my house, just to avoid getting stuck...not this year!! I blasted through the deep stuff no problem It's days like today that I'm thankful for getting the AWD.

 

You guys suck, I had to park my car for the winter and theres not even any snow yet

 

don't know about you guys, I used winter tires on my 2GS4 and I have the VSC off and POWER mode on!

 

as long as there's no snow or ice on the road, you should be fine. as long as the temp is above 2-3 degrees C, i'm not worried.

 

Ya I know, but because we're expecting so much snow this year I didnt wanna be caught unprepared..
