Jetta sportwagen TDI - Ski Car?
Anyone know how it handles in the snow? I typically drive to where it is snowing the hardest in the NE, will be using good non-studded snow tires. Does it get bounced around a lot or get sucked into slush easily? I am in the process of doing research on them to decide if I want to drop $25,000 on a car and have a hard time finding credible reports on how they handle in the snow. Figured this place would most likely offer credible snow handling observations. Lots of reviews of people saying either, yeah my Jetta is great in the snow I just make sure that I have decent 4 seasons on it, or no my Jetta sucks in the snow, but it might have something to do with my tires being completely bald.
With the long drives I make for skiing and hiking on a regular basis, the gas mileage, reliability, and storage capabilities make it seem like the perfect EC ski car to me.
