[Ecky]

I'm considering driving some of my stuff up to store at my in-laws before going abroad for a year or two, but I don't have much experience driving in northern winters. I'd be headed for northern Vermont in late December, and I have almost new Michelin Energy Savers on my car at present. It seems silly to buy a set of snow tires for a single trip, and was wondering if I'll be able to get by with just driving slowly and keeping a set of chains in the car for if conditions get bad. I also have the option of putting it off until spring and just flying up for Christmas.

Thoughts?
