The worst was the blizzard a few years ago at Christmas where my mom's house got about 10 inches of snow topped by 3 inches of ice. (Bowtie will remember this.) My brother and I were standing on top of the snow without sinking down into it while attempting to chip through the ice to shovel her driveway. And when we opened my car door (I had a Saturn at the time), you had to step DOWN to get into the car.

Weird, indeed.
BTW, it's not your car that's going to have issues in the snow, as much as it is you not being used to driving in it. As my friend from So Cal found out the hard way (unfortunately while I was a passenger), trying to make that quick turn will make you fishtail, even if you're in a Land Rover.
