Minnesota 1.0 owner, though that is not my usual commuter. The mission Vee are bad in loose snow at any pressure. But pressure is key with fat tires. At 20 PSI they roll like mountain bike tires, less and they are great for sand or mud, even less and they work well enough for packed snow.

They are way fun to ride and even though it is not my daily commuter it is my only mountain bike, unless the Fargo counts. I ride fat to work in 3 or more inches of snow, any less and you are just pushing snow without the float, 35mm cyclecross tires are great in less than three inches of snow. Ride what makes you happy.
