We‘ve been hit with a 3 day blizzard, and no sign of our farmer and his massive snow blower.
Snow is knee deep on our 200M driveway.
I had to do a run into town to pick up the turkey, so I shovelled the big pile at the road, and decided to make a run for it.

My van’s an AWD XLE with a 2” lift kit and Toyo Observe snow tires in OEM size.

We managed to plow down and out pretty well. The return trip is uphill with a curve, and I had to do a bit of rally-style controlled skidding, but the Sienna made it up. Just.

Snow is a lot deeper on the other side of the van.

Incredible. And consistent with what I found in my 2023 Sienna XLE all wheel drive without lift kit, but Im not sure I needed it, the snow was not as deep.

Are you all running stock tires or dedicated winter tires?

Are you all running stock tires or dedicated winter tires?

I'd think winter tires on those black steelies.

Yes, stock sized Toyo Observe snow/ice tires. Not sure what the next step up is- I have room for a bigger tire.
