I doubt that I have 1.8 million miles logged on the road, but I am sure it's close to one million by now. A bit over 50 years of my driving time was spent in and around Chicago, which on average has more severe weather than STL. I think I have driven in every possible kind of weather, be it glare ice on the roads or downpours of golf ball sized hail. I'd be lying to you if I told you I never lost control of the front wheel drive cars I was piloting. However, when it comes to ice on the road, especially ice that has been polished by many vehicles driving over it, it will not matter if your drive train is up front, in the center, or in the back. You are not going to have control on glare ice. It takes some skill to be a good driver, and there is no doubt in my mind you are among the top drivers. That's why you are not one of those people in the ditch. My guess would be that the skill you possess from all those miles of driving is way more valuable than the mechanics of the vehicle you are controlling at any given moment. Can't say that about everybody.
I'm always amazed how a light covering of snow will totally shut down any city south of the Mason Dixon line. LOL I understand that fully. They are not prepared for severe winter weather and have no way to respond to it. Debi is fortunate to have a Knight in Shining Armor such as you.
