Had to make a 100+ mile round trip run late last night with most hwys closed and while it took over 3 hours, I gotta say the BS did outstanding all the way, there & back in slippery mode on some of the hwy’s and lots of back roads. Total 100% feeling of confidence, with no slipping or sliding or spinning even while passing (safely) cars & trucks with flashers on, cars in ditches etc...
Very impressed with its snow & ice performance Along with new Toyo Open Country AT III’s.
Was a little worried about my gas as I did not even notice I was at 71 miles to E. But luckily found a gas station that was closed, but pumps were on.
Love this Lil booger!!

My Big Bend Sport handles nicely to the speed limit on slippery and snowy roads (my commute is on roads with 45-50mph speed limits )

We are going to have snow on Thursday. My bronco sport is in the shop getting a new bumper and wheel well liner put on . No fun,

Yea, that’s about the speed I averaged. Sorry to hear your Bronco is in the shop!

Agreed. Even with the snow on the roads feeling "greasy" here in WI, it feels great under my foot. Slippery mode really makes a difference to let you scoot around!

I do think I will be upgrading the stock OB tires to ATs soon though. Stock definitely are more for daily commuting, but the Bronc still handles marvelously!!

Drove mine late last night on pretty dismal far-west suburban roads in 'Slippery' and had no problems. I was not going to let my daughter drive it home to work in it (too inexperienced). Took it slow and the BL handled GREAT!

My wife and I took the Honda Passport in 'Snow' mode to get her and it was better, but that's because I drive it much more and I am used to it.
