Ended up sleeping there and coming home this morning, probably a good idea as my driveway is still an ice rink.
Glad you got something figured out!

I personally would rather have a manual in bad weather, so much more control when braking and acceleration. And I'm not a fan of traction control cutting the power when trying to accelerate!!!

I started out not thinking it would be to bad... and was going to give Matt a ride home, but then canceled that, but while i was out Rachael ended up needing a ride home. She was Baby sitting in Minnetonka, and the couple didnt get home till after 3 because of the traffic.

I had to change my route 3 times because roads were blocked by people stuck on hills. I also passed a bunch of people who were pulled over on the side of small hills who were stuck. AWD and snow tires is amazing. Although not invinclible, downhill's were a little tricky when a stop was at the bottom.
