I always enjoy a snow drive...especially while it is still snowing. Keep up the great work.

Nice! Miss those kind of drives. Growing up in the Shenandoah Valley and going to school in Blacksburg, had many winter days like that. As I'm sure you did, learned to drive in the snow in heavy RWD American iron. Tires were everything; with dedicated snow tires, usually no place we couldn't go! 😁

Thank you for making this video. As someone who has not done a lot of mountain driving, and even less when you add snow, I'm looking for all the tips, tricks, and how-to details I can get. I found this video because I'm going to be vacationing in Boone, NC, going around the area for skiing and snow tubing, and don't wont to be another tourist in a ditch. If you do any more of this type of content I would like to hear (almost a play-by-play) what you are doing in the different snow conditions (light on road vs. heavy / icy), throttle and speed in turns vs. straight, and a lot of details for how, when, and how-much breaking you are doing. For example I'm never sure if I should break a lot and often on downhills, or should I drop it to a lower gear and let transmission help keep it steady. I learned here that I need to ease up on throttle if sliding and let rear tires get behind the car before easing in to gas again. I look forward to more NC mountain content for all times of year.

Good in the snow but don’t hit a speed bump especially in a coupe…The transmission cracked 😭

I will be relocating to Iowa soon from Africa and I have chosen a 2024 Honda civic sport model for drive to and from work,what tips can you give me, please note it will be my first time encountering snow driving

[@deanlyons3185]

Good tires are important. An all weather, at the very least, the more aggressive the tread, even better. Smooth driving input is even more important, throttle, brakes and steering.

[@nkusta4life999]

@@deanlyons3185I will certainly follow your advice,thank you so much for your input,much appreciated 👍🏾

Manual

Does this car drive good in deeper snow

[@deanlyons3185]

Up to a point, it has a low clearance but if light fluffy snow will bust through it.
