Lived and learned to drive on frozen White Bear Lake, flat Minny is not the issue, send that big boy down hwy 26 in Oregon and come back with a report.I wanna make a new post but I waste enough time as it is. I'M CALLING BULLSHIT ON THIS WHOLE "SNOW MODE" CARPING.
I've now driven the R1T in bad ice/snow conditions on 3 different tires. My R1T on 21" stock tires, my R1T with Toyo Snow tires and finally a loaner LE with 20" stock AT.
I spent the better part of today (a good 150 miles) slogging through a winter storm in the LE loaner. 6" of new snow and good hour drive on glare ice stop & go rush hour traffic. For kicks I left it on high regen most of the time. The truck performed perfect and the Pirelli AT aren't that bad. Not nearly as good as my Toyos and better than the 21" Pirelli's (which weren't event that bad on snow/ice)
I don't know what kind of drivers you guys are but I just have NONE of the issues you describe. None. Maybe I'm just a freakishly good driver but never once over the last 3 snow outings on any of these tires did I feel a new for something different...aka Snow Mode.
