I agree with that, the Mirage gets around pretty good even with the Enasaves but if you can afford it, why not? Makes for safer travel during the winter months. Now on the other hand down here in ludicrously temperate Southern Oregon Coast not necessary. A "frost" warning is a major winter event here-haha. Just a bunch of rain, more rain and when you get sick & tired of the relentless rain, it rains some more.
