Would you drive in the snow?

I am supposed to travel to Panguitch, UT tomorrow to stay at the KOA there. Unfortunately, they are expecting 1-3 inches of snow. It looks like temperatures will be above freezing most of the day.

I'm driving a 45 foot, tag axle motorhome weighing 45,000 pounds and towing a 6,500 pound Ford F-150 behind me. My route would take me across I-70 and down SR 89.

The question is, should I chance it? Or should I wait until Saturday to travel? Has anyone driven in the snow when temps are above freezing?

Couple of things stand out - One FLORIDA - You are asking the Question - In my book stay put.

With the right driver the Coach can and will handle it but - with no experience You should stay Parked.

I've done Rabbit Ears Pass and Berthoud Pass in 6-8" and it was not fun, Eisenhower tunnel with 6-9 going East and Sunny on the other side. So it can be done but ....... On both occasions I need to not get snowed in for a week as both storms were north of 16" when all was finished.

You are in Utah and the weather will likely only be cool for a few days.

Just chill and be glad you are in the house.

BOL,
