I-90's greasy as heck and the traffic's running about 50 mph, max. The MB's tracking and stability immediately became apparent. Cruised at 65 mph average, mostly in the unplowed lane, passing every vehicle -- most of which were AWD SUVs. The TDT is an amazing vehicle and outstanding snow car.

I am buying a set of snows for mine...trying to Decide between the Blizzak WS-50 and the Michelin X-ICE........Googling up some reviews put the X-ICE above the Blizzak.....
This will be my first winter in the Benz (sold my snow car) ..and first rear wheel drive car without limited slip rear I have had since 1979...
