Ha ha suckers. In my city we have 2 major freeways. They cross and go with the cardinal points. So you can go 10 min in each direction and reach a new landscape to concur. Go east and hit the mountains. Then north and hit a lake, then more mountains. Then west and desert and hill as far as you can see. Go south and hit more desert and clay mud and more lakes and rocks to climb.

a bit of advice big guy. if you put weight in the back, which is a good thing. do not put it at the very back by the tailgate. lots of people make that mistake, if your rear starts to fishtail the weight at the tailgate will actually increase the speed of the spin, like the weights at the bottom of a grandfather clock (pendulum), put the weight over the rear wheels or close to the cab. the best tires in snow are narrow, i have been looking for a set of 7.00x15 (old army jeep)

take it from a guy in nova scotia it works better. good advice for you guys down south because your getting hit with snow.
