Got myself some snowsocks this year. My car's an automatic, & it's rear wheel drive (old Beemer), no traction control or ABS to dampen the driving experience (this is where I think modern cars fall down, you don't tend to get any feedback or feeling of what's going on with them, all the controls are far too light IMO).
Anyway, I ordered 2 pairs of snowsocks, on special offer with Groupon, but ended up with 4 pairs by mistake.
I've always driven older cars, most without power steering, I think these are good ways to learn how to drive in winter conditions. As for towing, well I wouldn't deliberately go out in the snow with a caravan, but if it just happened to me, I would take it easy or pull over, wind the rear jacks down & get the kettle on.
(I would secretly relish the opportunity really. I'm not a fan of snow, but I like an adventure, weather it be a very careful drive, or an impromptu overnight stop in a lay-by somewhere )
