I live in Mass this is my second winter with the XF. Not much snow for us last year so didn't drive in those conditions a lot. Couple thoughts below. There is also a winter driving tips post located on the forum outside of the roadster section that is helpful.

- Winter tires (Continental Viking Contact is what I have)
- Add weight to trunk.
- Wash body and undercarriage at least 1x per week to get rid of salt. More if the conditions call for it.
- Keep the top clear of snow/slush build up to avoid excess weight/stress on it.
- Keep the windshield washer fluid topped off
- New wiper blades
- Drive safe and avoid driving in bad conditions if you can.
- Keep up on recommended maintenance.
