Had my first experience with the 2010 Adrenalin AWD last night on slick icy roads. The whole St Louis area had freezing rain last nite, that sheeted the roads with ice...had the ST in AWD auto for the last few days when we had the snow, and it did very well. When we had the nasty ice last night, had problems getting any traction what-so-ever...so I switched her into 4X4 "locked" mode, and that made a big difference. Still, nothing is going to grip very well on the ice, but I was impressed on how well the Adrenalin did. A lot of neighbors on the street couldnt even pull up their slight incline into their garage...way too slick. In AWD, the ST had problems as well...but in 4X4 locked...she went right up no problem. Decided to take it back out of the garage to play a little, and the locked mode made a huge difference for me as I experimented back and forth between the two modes. Looking forward to a nice blast of deep snow to see how she does next!!
