    So family and I decided to go see a waterfall in PA (Dingman's falls) and google gps routed me to the back entrance (doodle hollow rd.) which turned out to be packed ice and snow... and not wide enough to turn around.

    Went down a hill with ABS going bonkers and had to turn around at the bottom. Got back to the top no problem with my factory Pirelli fuel economy tires as if the road wasn't even packed ice...

    Awesome little truck!

    Should have taken a photo but wasn't sure I wouldn't be calling for a tow. Met a unicorn too a local single cab 4x4 gen2 taco had a plow and he laughed when I told him I went down that other road was surprised I made it back.

    I love driving on snow (at low speeds). That's what the 4x4 is for!
