6. It doesn't have any kind of enhanced drive

Last year, it was stuck for 2 weeks, until the snow melted. I wanted to get new tires this fall. The place I go to said I could wait a couple months. They showed me tire options while I was there, and even with new tires, I don't think there will be much benefit.

I haven't been back to get new tires. I was caught out in early November in a surprise snowfall, about 3" in less than an hour. I was on the other side of town, and had one of my grands with me. You can't get across town without driving on hills. I picked the flattest route, but I was sliding horrible, barely missed 3 cars. I was so grateful when I got home and swore I would stay off the roads when it's like this. I did okay on the actual street, but not in the lot. I've driven different vehicles in snow or ice over the years, and this car is the worst. It's on my list to trade it in, maybe for huskies and a sled
