So there have been occasions here in Maine where we have gotten 18 or more inches in a single storm.
I have no difficulties getting our truck down our 80 foot driveway.

Do you think the renegade could do the same?

Sure I could park in the road (no shoulders) and get the snow blower out, but would much rather be able to pull in the garage first.

It should go well with the right tires. I use purpose use winter tires on my rear wheel drive car and have no problem with many inches of unplowed snow on the road.

Here is a dealer in Germany that did a 40cm (16 inch) snow test:

We have our Demonstrator subjected to an extreme test and are excited about the climbing ability in combination with the meaningful traction out of the Jeep Drive Active Low-wheel drive of the Trail Hawks. In combination with the 9-speed automatic transmission and a perfectly balanced traction control manages the "small" defies 40cm of snow to plow its way over our little test track and / to master the 40 degree slope gradient. You are welcome to have a test drive on the road, invited!

Looks like it did just fine, thanks. The wife thinks we need another truck, hopefully this will help swing things my way.

If not, just buy her the matching Omaha Orange snow plow attachment kit :nerd:

That's awesome and just proves for the most part the Renegade should be good for most of it's consumers when it comes to driving in winter.

But as always, good snow tires and winter driving skills also go a long way.

With proper tires it will go until the snow lifts the tires off the ground.

exactly.
even cheap, entry-level winter tires will do.

If your plow attachment is to heavy for the Renegade, here is an even better idea with additional self-supporting wheels:

Looks like it does a goo job from the photos which is nice to see for Canadians. I think a lot of it comes down to tires as well.
