RE: 1st Snow in My A4

I recently experienced the first snow in my A4Q and had a similar fogging 
problem though not as bad as Ivan described.  Hanz und Klaus apparently felt 
that once the outside temperature was over 32F or so the AC could work.  The 
car was great in the snow and ice though 8" of fresh wet unplowed snow with 
4.3" of ground clearance makes for an interesting drive...

I would like to avoid the expense and hassle of buying separate rims and 
snow tires if I can avoid it but the owners manual and dealer insist that 
chains should not be used with the factory setup.  What do the rest of you 
do when chains are required in the mountain passes or 'a good idea' in town?
