Bad weather doesn't always mean there has to be bad driving

Abstract:
Winter has arrived, and I bet you're wondering "is there anything I can or should do to prepare for it?" The simple answer is yes - there is, and it doesn't have to be expensive either.

Snow tires are the big item everyone wonders if they need or not. Well, that depends on what tires are on your car....

If you honestly think you can make it up a hill with two snows on a rear drive car during a CNY snow storm, I think Skytop Road can change your outlook on life.

By the way, the Hyundai Santa Fe and Toyota Rav4 are incomparable for generalizations. The Rav4 is a small SUV. By contrast, the Santa Fe lengthened it's body seven inches in 2008 to fall into the mid/fullsized SUV comparisons. That' like clubbing together a Subaru Forester and a Ford Explorer, and that's just plain silly. In fact, the only thing that the Rav4 and Santa Fe have in common is that they are imports. (Although the Rav4 does have an optional v6, which comes standard in the Santa Fe.)

Anyways, on your comments that the two are about "as good at off-roading as Stevie Wonder is at hopscotch."

edmunds.com rates the Rav4 as "plenty capable off the beaten path."

And what more would you need a Santa Fe to do than this?
