I'm not in Alaska, (NW Montana) and have no problem driving in snow/ice with full time lockers front and rear. I just let off the gas and coast around curves and when making turns. Like everyone has said, a block heater and quality warm clothes are a must! Wool is your friend!
I also never leave the house without recovery gear( Winch, straps, ****** block etc..) and extra clothing/sleeping bag.

I keep extra clothes a blanket some power bars a snow shovel and kitty litter in my truck in the winter months.All that is in case i get stuck and have to ride it out.The kitty litter is for traction and its cheap enough to buy.

Curious why ya have your winch cable wrapped around the bumper....is it to keep it from freezing & make it easier to spool out / hook up ??
