Hello from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Hello fellow Trax owners.

Hello from the North, I am an owner of a 2014 LTZ Midnight Blue.

Casper · Nov 11, 2014

Hello from Lethbridge Alberta. I have a 2014 Trax and love it. Took it out in the snow today and was very happy with the AWD. I was thinking of snow tires but don't see the need yet with the tires being new.

Welcome to the forum, i'm noticing more and more canadian members on here all the time

TrainTrax · Nov 11, 2014

I mean that makes sense right now since Canadians actually have the Trax right now as opposed to the Americans that have yet to receive it.

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum!

very true,
they have had it for some time now.
surprised there aren't more canadians here

TrainTrax · Nov 13, 2014

We are a small but proud nation. And I think the forum is fairly new. I bet the Americans will join us once the Trax is released there. I am thinking it will be pretty popular there.

chevyfan · Nov 13, 2014

it comes out early 2015
i'll expect to see more americans after the LA Auto Show and NAIAS in April.

So I guess a lot of Americans may be buying the Trax with their Christmas money.

James · Nov 18, 2014

chances are that will be the case, at least their chirstmas money will cover the deposit, that will be a definite.

I suppose it matters how much your haul is.

I've always wanted to receive a car with a big bow on it for Christmas.

chevyfan · Nov 19, 2014

my christmas money is usually enough to cover a the deposit, and some accessories.... which has me thinking....that might be the for me to order

I hate the stock tires, useless in snow and ice.

Ha ha. Maybe our snow down south here is different, I have had no issues with the stock tires on either the ice or snow.

The next part might be to question how one drives as i have seen people who with great winter tires still complain, meanwhile people i know with RWD coupes running all seasons are doing just fine...surprisingly

Casper · Nov 26, 2014

I'm a pretty mellow driver, I found though on streets that were not plowed and some pretty icy intersections that I had no troubles at all with traction. But like I say, I'm a pretty mellow driver.

that's not too bad at all, good for a vehicle like this.
are you just keeping it in drive or do you also use lower gears for getting through snow?

Casper · Nov 27, 2014

I haven't used the lower gears at all yet. Haven't needed to yet.
