How does u guys vans perform in the snow? I took mine out the other day and it wasn't very good. I was sliding all over and got stuck on the flat part of my driveway. (Granted it wasn't plowed but the van should have moved a little)

| My '91 goes fine in the snow with big nobby Cooper Weathermasters on all 4 wheels. The "86 DC does'nt go out in the salt/snow. |

| A few years ago I was driving to Tahoe to go skiing in my '84 standard 2wd when I hit a patch of black ice at the top of a pass just a few minutes from my destination. The damn ABS never kicked in after I slammed on the brakes :lol: so I became a 4000 pound weight sliding down the road. Luckily I slid to the left into a snowbank and not to the right over the 300 foot cliff. Just drive extra slow and get the right tires..... |

| My '81 Westy seems to do fine in the snow here in Idaho. Granted, she won't go anywhere the roads are plowed, but other than that, she is a champ in the snow (with the engine in the back and a rear wheel drive set up, it is no different than a front wheel drive, front engined vehicle). Good Luck! |

| It's all in the tires. My tires are crap in the snow. I'm gonna buy a set of good mud and snow's to put on her before next winter. For now, to get around I have to put on chains. I hate chains. |
