Default First Winter With Jeep...

And I gotta say that I'm impressed..

The anti-lock brakes seem to do ok. My trade in (trailblazer) had horrible anti-locks. I am used to not braking enough to let them kick in, cause the trailblazer wouldn't stop once they did. Jeep does pretty good.

ESP. Once I figured out what it's about, I like it. At first I left it on and it would take forever to start going. Once I turned off the traction control part, it was much better. My Trailblazer's stabilitrak could be turned all the way off for a little fun. The antii-fishtail works pretty good and still leaves room for fun, just more controled. And it works way better than the trailblazers did.

Also my first winter with a limited slip diffy... good stuff. I have yet to put her into 4x4 yet.

Not to mention the 32's and 10" of ground clearance...

Jeep vs. Trailblazer = Jeep on top.

One happy jeep owner here

Ditto! This is my first winter with the jeep too. It heats up pretty fast, and it's toasty

hardly any snow in GA, but there is ice. Traction does well. I'm very pleased!
