If you never lived where it snows and were moving North to where it does snow, what would you have liked to have known? What would you do to prepare?

If you don’t have a car that can drive in snow, don’t drive in snow.
Last blizzard I was in, I had to pull over to try to help two people get up a small hill.
The first woman was afraid to steer while me and and a tow truck driver pushed her up. She wanted one of us to steer her car, but that just couldn’t happen. She ended up paying the tow truck driver more than $300 to tow her.
While that was going on, a Honda Civic ended up sliding backwards down the hill. I pushed that one about 100ft along the road until it leveled out enough to move on its own.
We have a Civic, but it sits in the driveway for blizzards.
If you get serious snow where you’re moving, and you have to drive, get something with all wheel drive. Just remember that all wheel drive doesn’t mean you can stop. You still need to drive like a Granny in Sunday church traffic.
I had a Yaris and a Prius and they did great in snow. They just need snow tires. A sedan with snow tires will do better than a suv with all season tires any day of the week.
Civics are amazing in the level of snow Connecticut gets if you have the right tires
Yeah, pretty sure a Civic with winter tyres is pretty capable as long as it doesn’t bottom out on the snow or try to drive on solid ice
