Most people with steep driveways like that has 55 gal. plastic teat dip drums of sand in the steep and hardest to get up spots and in you case, you definatly could use one at the bottom of the hill too. As mentioned by others, tires make a world of difference, wide tires are ice skates and are completely worthless for winter driving, this includes super swampers etc... a regular size car tire works the best with winter tread and make sure tire pressure is correct because that also makes a big difference. Maybe you should consider an old yard truck, put snow chains on it and leave them on, find one with a plow and 4wd for dirt cheap (I'm talking about an old jeep or something thats no longer fit for the road), and use that to plow and go down your hill each morning and spead some sand from your sand barrels to make it safe for your other vehicles.
hope this helps,
Jonathan
