I did a small project for the NWR refinery a few years ago.
When we had a site meeting in January, the president of the ESP I was working for showed up to site in a AWD 911. Said it was his year round DD in Edmonton.

They happen to sit in the booth beside me and once they get their coffee they look out the window and I hear laughter followed by "Who the (expletive) drives a 911 through the pass in winter?"
Without looking up from my meal I say "I do, and it handles winter roads better than the POS you pulled up in". They ended up having breakfast at my table while we BS'ed about cars and skiing.
