Totally incorrect for both posts. A geo with winter tires is better in the snow than a truck on 40 inch mud tires. Winter tires feel like turning on the cheat codes when it’s slick. They have like 10 times the grip of good all seasons below freezing.
I drive on unmaintained roads a lot in the winter. The hakkapeliittas on my truck let me drive in 2wd until the snow is a foot deep.
It won’t help you skidding out on the highway, but there are a few situations where you start slipping where they’ll actually catch it.

That is also a big help, the best thing you can do is increase what’s basically the coefficient of friction.
Yep. Winter tires stay soft at lower temperatures increasing static and dynamic frictions in winter conditions.
