I have a friend whose driveway is about 50/60 degrees of incline. In the winter it snows/freezes over making pulling in nearly impossible. She is looking for a car/suv that can get into her garage easily.. any suggestions?

Like I say in every other post... how much is her budget to spend?

On ice, about the only thing that will help truly is studs, however they are so inept at other conditions like snow, dry, and wet, that its hard to recommend them.

I recommend something with a true AWD like a subaru or Saab outfitted with Blizzak or similar winter tires. On-demand 4wd like found in many trucks is great for max traction, but not always smart when torque differentiation is more advantageous.

That and a buttload of salt :)
