I actually had a custom five speed build for my GL,
and added a diff lock at the time. I live in New
England - and while the diff lock helps in snow, one
needs snow tires for best traction in my opinion. Lots
of miles in the snow - and winter tires are the key.
All-seasons are good, but winter tires are better yet.
