Default Midwest USA/Chicagoland SNOW

whats up guys..
well the midwest had a huge snow storm yesterday... snowing all day!
just wanted to know how many of your quattro lovers had a day of fun in the snow.
Im from the chicagoland and know that i was liking it.. Everyone was getting stuck in the snow and i was passing them up like it was a summer day. I even went around two cars becuase they were driving like 15mph.. it was a pontiac grand prix. and he was high beaming me and yelling slow down hahaha.
how were your snow stories. ?

I loved the snow! I got to thinking, how come BMW's slogan was "The Ultimate Driving Machine", when I would like to see a beemer try and get through all that snow we got. I felt bad driving around because my front bumper became a snow plow. And yes, snowboarding is super fun.

The XI actually has an add of it driving in a perfect circle and then the audi tries to do it and all that comes out is the four rings...Ill try to find it. I geuss the XI system is better then Quattro now...Who knew.

Oh ok, I didn't know that.

But I still would like to see a BMW get through the backroads I went through that night we got all the snow. I just can't see a rear wheel doing too great in it.

I freaking hate it because everyone here in Milwaukee drives like morons, people in bugs and civics think they have 4-wheel drive slipping everywhere. Other than that it's awesome having quattro, my fiance's '97 A4 definitely became a snowplow, there was no way I was shoveling this three foot mountain of snow blocking the alley so I just reversed through it while the S4 sat waiting patiently God I love quattro!

i dunno about the BMW vs Audi video... the bmw they use is an old 3 series. i dont think they even have that in XI. it might have stability control. BUT the back wheels are prolly spinning out non stop.
