Spent a snow day pulling people out of ditches when I had the jacked up GMC Jimmy.
If the stuckees thanked us or offered to pay we refused money saying we didn't want to let them buy the feel good from us. One pissed guy didn't thank us so we asked for help with gas money. He refused. We pushed him back in the ditch and drove off to him swearing at us.
Man, that Jimmy was great! It would not only cruise over 8 ft drifts, it could push past high center and climb right over those 10 to 15 foot high piles made when they plow parking lots.
The Rover did pretty well the 3 days we've had of icey/snowy roads since I got it.
Really only had 1 car that didn't do okay on slick roads. The 90 928 GT, even with mud and snow tires it was scary. It tended to just slide down hill with both rear tires spinning no matter how much you slipped the clutch. And once you did get it going it had massive engine braking, you couldn't let off the gas without initiating swapping ends.
Not sure what the difference is but the GTS gets around okay even with super sticky dry weather tires. Got the $800 Rover to save the GTS from the idiot drivers. One lady in an SUV passed me doing 50mph on ice, then proceeded to slide sideways through a red light. Didn't learn either as she hardly even slowed down after blowing through the intersection.
