I opted for the Siberian Dwarf Hamster. Doen't mind the cold as much. And if you can see over the hood, the hamster is extended on a retractable pole, similar to the power antennas, to the road, The sensor is based on his reaction, if he is stressed and skidding along pavement, no ice. If he is relaxed, he is sliding on ice. When the temp is over 40, he automatically retracts to save wear and tear. They are working on a guinea pig version for the 3/4 ton when it comes out.
