As funny as this is and as much as I love hating on the Fridgidaire, this really all comes down to tires, not many people put the right shoes on their truck. I had an ICE pickup with stock tires and it was laughably bad in the snow and off-road before I put some A/Ts on it. The manufacturers put the best mpg tire they can find on vehicles for the EPA estimates. 10x that importance when you’re talking about EVs.

My CT is a tank. Ridiculously sure footed, almost hard to get to slide. I did change the tires to some Toyo AT. It is truly an incredible rig. Just saying tires matter, driver matters, situation matters but since the CT is so visible and out there anything it does bad gets press.

My neighbors CT after a few modifications. The front bumper looks pretty low to the ground, but that might be the angle of the driveway.

it is. Honestly it can be raised up almost a foot by settings but I keep mine as low as possible so my wife can get in and out easy. His looks like it's on low. no reason for high unless you wanted it or planned on going off road.

Any real-world range numbers for MN winter driving for the CT?
