I'm in Tennessee just like you and have driven 3 winters on the Goodyears without any issue. Just have common sense below 40 deg.

44* and was driving normal
I'm just saying they turned into skis and now my rides in a wrecker lot. I wasn't driving crazy, I wasn't speeding, I wasn't texting, I was just driving and my car decided it didn't want to turn. Just trying to keep someone else from the same fate. I know if I get another one, first thing I do is going to be swapping the tires out.

The guy wrecked his car because the temps were too cold for the tires and with this in mind, he was going too fast for the conditions (both the road and his vehicles ability). Blaming the tires is just an excuse and I have very little sympathy for it seeing how this is the 50th thread about the tires being dangerous in the cold.

I drove a newly purchased ZL1 from Tulsa, OK to Los Angeles, CA in late December 2014. The temps hovered in the 20F-40F range the whole time. With some sleet/snow in northern TX on the I-40. My wife was in the passenger seat, and my 2 year old son was in a car seat in the back. I was driving normally, was texting and speeding with the stock Goodyear tires and managed to keep the car on the road for all 1800 or so miles.

Mine were Goodyear F1 supercar tires, like the ones that come from the factory, not P0's
