We have about 2-3" of sleet and I just got home from work. I was surprised that the SS wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It was a little better than my old 91 454SS pickup. The torque of the 454 with rear wheel drive, no weight and 275/60/15 tires made that truck spin the tires even with the brakes on at a traffic light! The biggest trouble I had coming home was other drivers going too slow! There were people doing 9 mph!

In south jersey, we had about 3inches of sleet which turned to ice, almost impossible to shovel, you need to break up the ice before you shovel it. 60* by thursday though.

We ended up with ~12 inches. I ripped it up once I got off the highway. Everyone was driving like little b*tches. Once off the highway I did some nice drifts and donoughts! It was a blast until we had to snow blow. If I wasn't lowered I could have cared less, but...... At least I got to use my Blizzaks this season.

Throw Hakka 4s on, lock the center diff, and you can climb ice walls with that sucker!! It would almost be difficult to break it loose on snow.
