When I lived in Western Mass and had a 55 mile commute, I kept my snow tires in the trunk and swapped them out for storms. I was down to about 5 minutes per wheel. These days I'd have an electric impact wrench and maybe a jack that worked with the impact wrench as well.

93' Honda Accord - Mileage with regular tires over 30 mpg, mid 20's with the snow tires. With over 500 miles per week, it added up.
