Another car question: Snow tires or 4 wheel drive more important?

Is your child living in the dorms or off campus? And how far off?

I’m thinking that a front wheel drive car with new all weather tires should work. Or a Subaru.

I couldn’t run my business without my serious 4WD Durango – but I have to get to work and get home even in a blizzard. I have that delicate and perishable inventory that needs daily care.

Most people don’t need that. But Ithaca has real hills – and real weather – so I’d base my judgement on how much necessary travel there will be. Maybe I really would buy a Subaru Forrester.
