The x5 made it out of that snow and up to Breckenridge after the blizzard last Wed - Thru.

E61Silver is an unknown quantity at this point
It 50 degrees here in NYC, but I remember about three years ago when we got storm after storm.

Since I have purchased my X5 I have never had a change to drive it in snow.

Do you have winter tires?

No snow tires.. Had to shovel the drive to get out. Main roads wern't bad but getting there I had to "plow" a little snow with the x.

That pic is awesome. I just had the 18's put on with a new set of Scorpion Ice & Snows...but we have had no snow yet I am definitely chompin at the bit to test out the new rubber.

Getting around in the snow is no problem. The only "real" problem with that much snow is ground clearance. More snow today and tomorrow. Perfect for snowboarding!!

Looks like there will NEVER be snow EVER on the East Coast. Knowing my luck: the first year we had the X, there was no real snow. Now that we bought winter tires and mounted them, there will also be no snow. And my parents will think I wasted $600 of their money on a set of 4 winter tires.
