No surprise that a “Gypsy” skimmed over the part where I said I worked hard. Also not surprising that you make assumptions. My vehicle is 16 years old and I bought it used. Also I bought used snow tires that had seen a season and had them mounted on wheels I got from a junkyard. I’m smart, safe, and thrifty, not entitled.

Yes and no. I work hard to make sure I've got proper equipment for winter which includes an AWD vehicle with studded snow tires with lots of tread. I also remove all the snow from my vehicle before I drive. I have lots of experience and know how to drive for the conditions. I'm also cautious. Too often I get behind people that haven't cleared the snow off their windows and have a two-wheel drive vehicle with worn tires. I feel like they are unprepared to be driving in those conditions and should be going slower than I am or not on the road at all. I don't think I should have to go slower just because you are inexperienced or didn't prepare for the driving conditions.

I just question, who get's the say on what is vulgar? That is how this started.

No. After wearing these since the 1980's, I have to say that they are horrible. They are slippery, cold, and weak even after treatment with snow seal. I used to love them for bird hunting, as they were like forest slippers, but my feet were always wet and cold. Also, my last 3 pairs had the heel stich fail, creating a hole in the back seam. There are many better options now.
