[s-cars] Quattro VS Impala SS

[Graydon D. Stuckey]

I had a similar experience a couple winters ago.  My neighbour up the street
was visiting our next door neighbour with his rwd Impala SS with the 17"
wheels and it was icy outside.  The street (a dead end) had probably 2" of
solid ice on the surface.  Our street is also sloped quite a bit, so he got
stuck at the end of the street and proceeded to burn two nice
Good-year-shaped pockets into the ice.  The car didn't even budge when he
spun the tires.  So, I hooked up the Impala to my S4 and pulled him out, up
hill, no problem.  :-)

He went out and bought snow tires the very next day!

Sincerely,
