Thanks for the replies.

I do have the traction control. I'm pretty confident as far as traction goes since I have that, the 4 snows, and if it comes to it... I could toss a couple sandbags in the trunks. I've driven so much in snow throughout my life that I'm not really worried about my abilities. (Went to school in the White Mountains, grew up just south of there). I also have a solid game plan for commuting with straight major roads, and a relatively short commute.

The issue really is the defrosting. I've seen a couple people say the cabin heats up quick, so hopefully that'll be good enough to keep stuff from freezing, and Prestone de-icer spray will quickly get me going initially.

Maybe I'll try it out this winter and make my decision for the future in the spring when hardtops should be cheap again.

Thanks again.
