Does it have AWD drive like a Polaris? NO! What was she thinking? Maine is a big snow state! Maybe you can jack it up and put 33s on it for clearance, aftermarket AWD setup, and who knows what you would be able to do?

My bad Stendori. I forget they're putting awd on almost everything. Still, a lift kit might help it out when the snow gets deep... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Reminds me of a situation I once saw. I have some property up in Barnard, VT and was camping on one of the level areas about midway up the hill one time. I woke up to someone firing a pistol, so I went down to the lower area where I have a target setup. There was a guy there shooting a .44 magnum. I said hello and said he was welcome to shoot anytime he wanted if we weren't camping. He had an old Saab 900 with huge tires on it. They were about 31 inches tall and had a very aggressive tread. He said he had to cut all the fender wells to fit and that it gave him about 9 inches of ground clearance. I wish I had a digital camera. I'm sure your wife wouldn't mind if you took a Sawzall to the fenders to fit some taller treads on the car, Stendori. Show us the pics when you are done.
