Deepest snow driven in?
 
Just curious, what is the deepest snow that some of you have gotten away with driving in without getting stuck. I came home (Cincinnati area) from out of town last Tuesday only to find my 400' driveway covered with drifting snow-up to 18" in spots. I could not make it all the way in, even in low, had to walk the remaining 350'.

I drove through stuff tonight that ranged from 2" up to roughly 6-8" in the deepest stuff... Made my 55 minute commute 2 hours... :D yay for great gas mileage... not:(

Last weekend I was joyriding my ZR2 on some ORV trails in northern MI with about 2 ft of snow, I was fine but started to spin on some steep hills. I was in 4LO the whole way, for about 10 mi

ive done 18 inches of snow before... though it was on a truck with brand new 38s. that was about 8 years ago. and we havent had anything like it since. chicago has really been slacking in the snow department

About 2 feet of fresh DRY powder. You get in the wet stuff and its not nearly as fun or easy.

deepest I went so far...

^^^ good vid!

the deepest i've gotten through was about 24"+ in my '92 Jimmy. haven't really had any serious snow in the last two Winters, so i'm not too sure how my '98 will fair. seems to handle what i've thrown @ it fairly well so far.

my biggest issue is gonna be when the crapy plastic bumper gives way to the snow i'm driving through.

just remember, the tires that you ride on will make a world of difference in how far you get.

lol just take the plastic part of ur bumper off. I hate that thing. I think it looks better without it
