weenie, I drive my 2005 Prius in New England snows, and I love it. Of course, you have to drive rationally, and you need 4 snow tires (forget the “all-weather” tires; they’re not, and not on any car - you really need snows). If you drive sanely for the conditions, it’s a joy to drive in the snow. I haven’t fishtailed once.

Yes, the mileage does go down in the winter - mine has dropped from about 46 average to about 42, but I can live with that!
