Should skid plates be installed when driving on thick snow when its either soft/hard?
About a week ago NYC was hit with a small snow/sleet storm. Most of the roads have been cleared however the snow was pushed to the sides of the streets where cars would normally park. Because of this parking can be a trick or a treat depending on your car. Well I had an opportunity to drive my KJ over a snow mound, maybe 12-16 inches to get parking. When I did, I can hear the snow under my KJ crunching. I was wondering this cannot be too good unless I had some kind of protection for the gears underneath.
