Hi
This week-end i'll go to ski and I wonder if the Venture TCS is efficient on snow.
Do you think I need snow chain ?

TCS just prevents unintended wheel spin, so I'd say that if where you are going has enough snow to warrant chains typically, then TCS won't be enough.....my 2 cents...

tcs is only an aid when conditions are crappy, it wont drive the vehicle for you.

Back from skiing.
"Dry" snow on the road, no chain required. "Traction Control system" active only when I put the gas pedal in the glove box :)
