The Porsche. Took over 2 hours in mid-afternoon to go 16 miles, couldn't make the all the way home due to a slippery hill so the car is in a parking lot a mile away from the house. Hope to be able to get it home today.

I am working from home today, so the snow wins by forfeit. But I will take my 2014 Range Rover Sport Supercharged on Pirelli Scorpion Winters to the supermarket for bread and milk if needed. Because everyone needs bread and milk

My 1999 Jeep TJ has been running all over the roads of the North Atlanta suburbs winching cars out of the ditch...

other than a couple weeks of damp low 60s, SoCal has been sunny and high 70s / low 80s, like today, the past 4 months

Just a weeee bit jealous. It's been a long winter so far, but the forecast is suggesting a thaw next week.

In your situation, I'd take the Honda. Front wheel drive, good ground clearance, and probably all season tires. I've been enjoying my e70 X5 in the snow/ice storms in Atlanta even with summer tires.

I have winter tires on my C2S, but when it's snowing I usually drive my truck.

Even just a little bit of snow reminds you quickly how bad the car needs snow tires! I still have them left
