Lets just say:
Pulley + Supercharger + 3800 = tires spin VERY easy.

I have a snowboard and a sled, so snow is not so bad, on the other hand i have a dirt bike that is more fun to ride when not snowing and save the best for last a Bonneville that is way more fun to drive in dry ground

And while you are fighting to stay in control..ask yourself "why did I get rid of a perfectly good low mileage car?"

Try towing something behind a truck with no 4x4, automatic, and v8 on snow/ice covered roads. Talk about life being interesting.......

I have a 91 Suburban (lifted, v1500, 4x4). Every vehicle has brakes on all 4 corners, trying to take off from a stop is a lot better and plowing thru more white stuff is easier, but it'* not invincible. The dude who got his Bonnie rear ended, who lives at my apartment complex, sold me 4 Bonnie rims and 4 studded tires 
I should be all set
