My car was terrible on the ice we had this weekend, not bad in the snow though.

At idle, sitting still, read the little grey numbers on the guage, _not_ the white numbers. The grey numbers give a gallons per hour measure. Ar warmed-up engine tends to be around 0.5 gallons per hour at idle.
And no car is good on ice without studded tires or chains.
