Hey !! I'm Zin & I just drove my Yaris home today.
Here's the QUESTION for everyone:
Can the Yaris handle SNOW? :eek:
I go snowboarding every winter at Big Bear,CA. And...its not "real-deal" alpine, but bad enough to need chains and a few inches clearance under the belly.
Has anyone taken their Yaris into the snow? How'd it go?
How realistic is raising the thing a couple inches, getting slightly bigger wheels, and actually putting in a simple rack to haul my boards??

Thanks!!! I love my new car and want it to go everywhere I go.

xoxo
Zin

I was really surprised how well my sedan S did in the snow. I'm in Ohio and we get dumped on maybe a couple times a year. Last winter we had a good snow of 8-10" and the Mighty Mighty Yaris excelled even with the somewhat limited clearance.
