- Mazda CX5 Touring with PEP
Exactly what I did not want to happen happened. I had to drive my 2 week old CX5 in the snow. I have an Xterra beater for winter duty.
I was at work on a 5 day trip. I was in Indianapolis and came home Sunday, headed for Erie PA and then another 1.25hr south after that stop. South of Cleveland, it began snowing all sorts of stuff, snow, sleet freezing rain, ice balls..... accumulated about a solid 3 inches. Came down fast. Came down harder and faster after I finished work. So now I had to drive home 1 hour.
I have the Yoko all season tires that came stock with the vehicle. Not a slip or slide or trouble with traction control etc. Roads were between packed snow cover and slush. Felt like very firm controlled footing.
