Snowed on Halloween here.

Winter prep?
Build new plow frame for the truck
Park the Mazda
Bust out the winter beater Buick

Probably try a grill block this year. Debating a new airdam. The 1.5" one on there got broke last year.Of course, if this winter is like last then there's no hope for decent mpg constantly pushing thru huge drifts with temps often around -20 degF on my morning commute. Still shocked what a heavy car with narrow snow tires can go through! My Mazda had much better snow tires on it and didn't hold a candle to the Buick in the snow.
