I test-rode the ECR's father, the Surly Krampus, also with 3" tires. I'm very seriously eyeing it. The only place where it failed was deep dry beach sand (like a sand dune). It just ate up everything else.
For serious snow you might want a Pugsley (4" tires). From what I've learned, a Krampus/ECR rides like a mountain bike and is fine on the road, but a Pugsley gives away more when it's not on difficult stuff.
