    Absolutely true. My '69 was my only car for most of the time I've 
owned it, and I had it in Boston in a blizzard that shut the city down - 
 it presented no problem for an Imperial. I've also used it to pull out 
stuck 4WD vehicles (they were in deeper snow).
    My '62 was also a superb foul weather machine.
