We'll give this a try

So since it started snowing back in October Brianna and I have found out something.....Toyota Camrys suck very bad in the snow. I believed Brianna about how bad they were because I saw first hand that she couldn't even make it into the garage with about a half inch of snow on the driveway. So I always made sure that when I got home, and it was snowing, that I would shovel the driveway so she could make it into the garage.

Well last week Brianna was oh so nice and told me that I could take her car to work one morning when it was snowing and she would take my All-Wheel Drive Rav4. So I set off in her Camry thinking it wouldn't be to bad. That was until I got stuck on one of the many hills around our house and couldn't make it up. So I sat there, wondering what I should do when I see a snow plow coming up the hill. I thought "Awesome, now I'll be ok." So the snow plow came up and pushed a wave of snow over the car and I was stuck even worse now. I finally waited for the cars behind me to pass and was able to drift backwards into where the plow had gone and make it up the hill.

Now the point of this story - I get to work and say to myself that there is no way it can be this bad. So I check the tires and sure enough, the tread is almost completly gone. 25,000 miles and those tires were done. Lousy Bridgestone pieces of trash. Never buy a Bridgestone tire, they super suck. I went this past Saturday and got them replaced with some nice Good Year Triple Treads that Consumer Report rated as one of the best All-Season tires in snow.

We'll get our first test with the new tires tomorrow morning when it is supposed to snow again. Hopefully these new tires will do better because Brianna and I were very close to buying a new car for her and I really don't want to do that.
