Heres a link to the crazy weather we had in Colorado Springs/Denver area last week. This vid is worth the watch, but be forwarned it has a bit of language in it though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5exATIaQiI&feature=related

This is the night we drove to Denver to pick up a friend from the airport. We decided to take the charger since I have it equipped with hankook ipike studed tires and it sits lower to the ground for nice predictable handling and braking.

Notice the Jeep wrangler that stops and then makes it up the hill anyway. :)

THIS is exactly why it is worth the $$$ for good winter tires. :)

This video has been posted where it belongs... off topic... It's not a CRD thing.

This has been posted everywhere, including here already. A lot of comments from the peanut gallery at Colorado4x4.org also.

The brakes are NOT your friend in situations like this.

Of course the guy in the "big ole Diesel 4x4 can make it"..... he did the most damage I think. The bad part is after they hit the first one, they kept side swapping the rest as they slid down the hill.
