My FJ loves the snow... Her first wheeling adventure was up some old logging road called Wildcat Gulch in over 2 feet of fresh powder... She devoured it in 4L with A-Trac... My Avatar is from that trip.

How crappy was your gas mileage? 4L already drinks it, I imagine trudging through 2 feet of powder wasn't helping.

We got hit over a 2 day period pretty hard, I live in MA. I had a blast in my truck but now the cleanup starts. Another 4-8" Saturday they are saying. We are well on our way this year to breaking record snowfall totals. It's been a crazy winter in the N E

As for mileage I never really pay any attention to it while I'm wheeling... I doubt it was anything impressive... I seem to say pretty close to 17-22 MPG depending on my style. I'd like to get a set of chains and see how far I can go in the snow... That logging road meanders into the wilderness for about 40 miles and then just dead ends...

I had some fun in the snow here in Atl a few weeks ago. Wish we would get some more. My commute was awesome with no one on the roads.

It isn't that easy. Some of us don't own bicycle shops and have lazy winters.
