I am more concerned you think your Matrix is rear wheel drive. They were all Front Wheel Drive.
Drive with caution, slow down on straights and not in turns, you should be fine.

Snow tires would definitely help. Chains don’t do anything useful.
In general going slow is the best precaution you can take. Whether or not you will be “fine” totally depends on your comfort level and the conditions at the time

We have the single best looking plate so why wouldn’t a NYer want that green beauty? :)

Check out the sounds fischer cats and foxes make at night. Here in Hartford, we get them all the time. Definitely gets your attention the first time you hear it.

Wrong tone of year but first spring i was around for fox mating had the windows open and sounded like someone was killing a child outside. Freaked me out until i learned what it was the next day.

Starbucks coffee sucks anyway. Most expensive horrible coffee there is and people just can't get enough.

Foxes mature quickly, but will stay with their mom and hunt as a team for 5-6 months after reaching maturity. It's how they learn to hunt and survive outside the den. Communication with other foxes is their primary reason for vocalizing.

Buy local. At the end of the day it's the consumer feeding the monster

Could be! But there seem to be a number of them. Do foxes move in packs?

Not to get too bleak, but honestly the odds are just as good if not better that we just sort of slowly degrade into a more and more openly authoritarian state without much of any significant resistance to speak of.

Fox would be my next bet then. They have a range of vocalizations.

Don’t think it’s a fisher cat—sounds more high pitched and screechy. But thanks because now I know what a fisher cat sounds like! Cool!

We're almost there, and it scares the shit out of me. It will come to a point where this country is going to explode into civil war.

Fischer cats can make some demon goose noises when they get together.

Not my car, so I went with answer I got when I asked (partner's car). Fair enough. Thanks!
Edit: partner's car.
