    I installed Blizzaks right before the snow began to fall
    I can't recommend this enough.
    The car is a beast in the snow. Incredible traction and soft ride

    They have always been pretty stellar snow tires only use them once or twice in my life but we're pretty good.

    Yeah Gen 3 Prius is not for the snow especially after you get up above 13 and you get that square almost cow catcher looking grill That's nothing but a big thing to get damaged badly you know it's not the thing My wife collects dirt and garbage in there just from regular supposed to driving so people on the street shouldn't be having anything in there or bashing into that thing but go down a dirt road and boy you can have 5 lb of muds long up in there especially if you don't know how to drive holy Christ holy Christ
