I have been very happily surprised this week with the performance of my SRT6 on slick/icy/snowy/ steep hilly roads. Here in Northern NJ just above the George Washington Bridge we got snow/slush/ice on wednsday evening. I was off the Palisades turnpike in the backroads working at an account when it all hit. Now granted it was only about 2 - 3 inches of snow but it turned to ice pellets and was getting slick. I have snow tires and had about 20 lbs of "tools" and such in the boot. I put it in "W" and slowly made my way up a very long and steep hill towards the Palisades. The traction control flashed many times but I just let up a bit on the gas and it kept going. I did not fishtail nor lose my forward movement at anytime. As a matter of fact, I maintaned about 20 - 30 mph most of the time and passed several struggling cars, one of which was a 300zx. Now my 1.5 hour drive home took me 2.5 hours but I was not tempted to try for speed records as I really love driving this car and was not going to bang it up.

I have no idea how it will perform in deeper snow but for those of you who drive all seasons, snow tires mounted on regular crossfire wheels work great it you ease the peddle.

I hope this helps put a few minds at ease if you get caught in bad weather some time.
