Nah it's not a New York thing. I have no opinion really on the ability or equiptment on the car. I just presented what happened. I have no bias here. Everyone that commented mentioned tires and I agree. The transmission type is important yes. My car has an auto and the tires are 225/60/16 and NEVER had a problem in the snow. Sometimes the ability of the driver also has to be factored in. There's no testament here lol. Thanks for your comment. Be well.
only a New Yorker would post this video as a testament to some kind of all-wheel drive system lol In the past 6 years I've never had a problem driving in the snow in New York in my SVT Focus. Good tires are the key for traction, second most important thing is whether the car is automatic or a manual, which usually fares better given that it's a true manual with a lever and a clutch pedal (since some BMW and VW/Audi owners prefer to call their Tiptronics a manual :))) )
Factory rims and tires I believe. Check out the program Top Gear. (Britain) Watch Jeremy Clarkson test drive the BMW X6 also with all season tires. I like BMW's but the x drive system probably could use a bit more work. You could be right though. Thanks for commenting. Be well.
@Chrisoftheghosts that X6 video was total BS, im a huge fan of TG but when clarkson hate a car he shows that its rubbish even if its not, my uncle has the X6 and in winter he used proper winter tires and it was good. and if someone want to buy a car for off roading then go get yourself a range rover or G class not X6
He had to borrow a shovel and and some other tools to get to the point you
see in the video. I personally have no opinion on the car. : )

I do not know, what you all opines. With rear wheel drive he would never come out of this parking lot.
First he had a few problems, but then he had good traction.
