Decent tread and some experience of driving in snow will get most
folks through the winter unless you live on a hill. Last year up here
I spent many hours driving on snow, compact and loose. Good tread is
very important, as is not having a BMW!

High gears, good tread and foreknowledge of conditions is the way
forward. (and a spade in the boot).
