"They get a lot of practice driving on snow/ice. My father-in-law grew up in Beloit, WI and I don't think he ever owned a 4x4 in his life. I think the dingleberries out here forget how to drive in crappy conditions between snow storms."
Seriously, Beloit? wow. I dont meet many people from there. My wife and I both went to college there. My wife grew up just outside Belivdere IL about 20 min from there.
As for driving in the snow, yeah, people out there just learn to handle it. people learn their cars and what they will do in the snow. CO is a funny place because we have a mix of drivers that handle it well, and other drivers that, well, dont. Watch the drivers out there, they give extra room and take some extra time to get where they are going when its snowy. we could all learn from that.
