Default xB in the snow

This is kind of an old post, but I think there may be more of you now who have driven the xB in the snow.

Does anyone know how the xB does in snow? It looks like it could be a snow plow. I'm holding off the purchase untl I can test drive one on a lousy day.

Mine did fine through late winter in Denver. I would highly recommend snow tires thought, the stockies don't cut it. The car itself though -- especially with all the electronic babysitters -- was great.

:D The car was friggin awesome. We bought one from California in July of Last Year- I drove it through the winter last year. It was great until I put on the wrong tires in the spring-and it snowed one last time-and then I crapped myself.

Your car should be awesome as long as you have at the very least the stock tires.
