Made the trek to work this morning at 6 am, sleeting like crazy. About 38 miles, set to slippery mode, didn't even feel the tires slide or spin.

Drove home at 7 pm, black ice, very slick conditions, but only felt it slip twice. Once on a large bridge and once as I turned onto my street.

Gotta tell you, the hybrid handles slippery roads very well.

Very pleased with this little truck.
