Living in So Cal, I've only driven the RV in snow/ice once while camping at Yosemite. It's not something I would do again, unless ABSOLUTELY necessary. Just too many bad things can happen. Sliding a 40' motor home into a ditch, even at low speed, is much different than sliding a car into one.
Can you imagine the issues you'll cause if you get a 40' motor home, with toad, stuck on a one lane road. If it's blocking traffic, they don't care what damage they do to it to get it out of the traffic lanes.
The toad presents another issue. It will also need chains and requires another skill set to keep it under control in slippery conditions.
Lastly, the $35.00 parking, does it include restroom facilities since you'll probably have to have your coach winterized at the time. Do they offer electric to provide the heat you need or the electricity your batteries will need to keep charged while your propane unit is running. To me, it would be more work than it's worth.
