The whole snow bit. Driving say in Washington with snow is not anywhere near to as bad as driving Detroit in snow. Why? Michigan is sitting on top of the largest underground salt mine in the world. We (Michigan, Detroit area) use salt on our roads to remove snow and melt ice. It works good, but kills the cars. The UP (thats the part of Michigan above the hand) uses sand like most places. Amazingly enough, they do just fine. Hopefully someday, the Detroit area will stop using salt on the roads, but until then I wouldn't dirve around Michigan in the winter with anything of value to you.
