@6speedlover you made a very good choice!!! you have very beautiful places in the states to drive a 4wd, we also have many nice places in Greece to drive, enjoy your car - nice trips :-)
Is that snow chains or snow cables on the tyres? Trying to decide which to choose. Understand the cable type gives a smoother ride on hard surfaces (road, ice, etc), but chains may work better in deep snow. Can't figure out if the latter (performance) is truly different enough to warrant sacrificing the former (smooth ride).
snow chains. I ve been too many times in snow but Grand V never needed chains. But this time the snow were too much to pass just in 4 W drive. I would suggest you if you want to go out in the wild you should carry snow chains. Nothing else will make you feel safe. enjoy
Thanks for the advice, marmaos. I've ridden in snow without chains for years and was always able to either avoid or get myself out of minor predicaments. However, got seriously stuck in the snow last winter, partly due to my own complacency. Don't intend to make that mistake again. In addition to shovels, cable, winch, traction mats, and so on, snow chains will now be part of my regular winter off-road kit (installed if there is even a possibility of getting stuck).
We have a 2011 Grand Vitara, i can only wish to drive it somewhere so BEATIFUL!!!! Thanx for the video :-)

@marmaos Is this really Greece ? It looks a lot like Quebec (Canada). By the way, Quebec is a really good place to have fun in the snow :)

Σε κάποια κομμάτια έβαλα κοντές, ήταν δύσκολο πέρασμα κι ήταν η πρώτη φορά που χρειάστηκε να βάλω τις αλυσίδες...
Το καινούριο δεν ξέρω αν κόλλαγε αλλά το έχουν κάνει πιο ασφάλτινο και δεν μου αρέσει, ειδικά η μόνιμη τετρακίνηση.

Thank you. It's a small dose, but I need any bit I can get.
