\"\"A cowboy seeking adventure needs his trusty steed. A cowboy cannot chase the bad guy, save the lady or gallop triumphantly into the sunset with a lame horse. Roy Rogers had Trigger, and John Wayne, Old Dollor.<\/p>

Likewise, a skier or boarder with a lame vehicle can\u2019t get from one resort to another. In short, there is no GNASA without a reliable vehicle. Car problems of any kind can stop you in your tracks. The costs can be very high; especially, if you\u2019ve spent thousands of dollars on lift tickets and accommodations, taken off work and canceled other plans. All of these are common requirements of a GNASA.<\/p>

Note: There some occasions when a GNASA may involve a bus tour or other third party transportation options. In these cases, the third-party takes responsibility for getting you to your resorts. We like control over our mode of transportation. One could make an argument that if your not an experiences snow and ice driver and don\u2019t want to spend the money to ensure you have the right vehicle (owned or rented) you\u2019re better off letting someone else do the driving.<\/p>

We\u2019re going to cover the most important components of a vehicle that best support snow and ice driving. To ensure that you understand these components were also going to cover some car basics, physics, and mechanical issues.<\/p>

All of this is to help understand the two key areas necessary to pick (or rent) a great snow car. These are (1) how the wheels get power; and (2) how the car stops and slows. Finally, we talk about tires. One and two work better in ice and snow with the right tires.<\/p>

Here are the essential components of a car that tie directly to a reliable snow vehicle:<\/p>
