We just had our first major snowfall of the year in New Jersey, and I was reminded how good the X3 is in snow (when equipped with a good set of winter tires).

Road conditions were terrible last night - highways were snow covered, secondary roads looked like a sheet of ice, and local streets were rutted after a fast six inch snowfall. The X3 with Blizzaks handled it almost as if the snow wasn't there at all.

Sometimes I wish we had as much snow as you folks north of the border. I don't get too many chances to test this car's true capabilities.
