Yeah, it is nasty this week here in Alberta. Hopefully, it will be over next week. Good thing, I work from home and stay indoors. Only go to drop off and pick up daughter from school in the RX450h.

RCF is meanwhile staying warm and cozy in the garage till March. Counting the days to when I will be able to drive it.

I'm retired now, but when I was working I traveled a lot. I had a client in Killdear ND. I traveled there a few times, but only once in the winter. I have NEVER been that cold before or since. I swore never to return in the winter. never again

Eco mode and I even get to push the snow button once in a while. Other than starting out from a start on glare ice I've never had such a stable car in winter. Even on black ice (extremely slippery road that looks like normal pavement) the car is amazing. Lexus really engineered this car for all conditions.
