While I am sure they work just fine in certain condidtions, there are many problems with this vehicle and others like it when using them on the ice...

1. They are heavy and tend to get stuck in deep snow.

2. It might have a difficult time negotiating pressure ridges.

3. Getting on & off the ice sometimes means crossing some shallow open water.

3. The enclosed cabin concerns me.... should you fall thru the ice (god forbid) would you be able to open the doors and get out???
