Don't matter where you live, whether it be canada or arizona.
So if your throwin out your hairy chest because you gotta back out of your driveway in a foot of snow I am hardly going to stand in awe.
But thats ok. Stay in your driveway.
It saves me the trouble of havin to get my yank strap wet and dirty.

We are talking about driving on roads, and yes, we just got 10+" of heavy snow, even accumulated on our road. But the highways were cleared multiple times during the snowfall so they got next to zero accumulations. To have a vehicle that can handle dry pavement, wet, snow, ice etc, and haul the family around - AWD is the answer.

Our GL had no trouble with the 10" on our side road. Next day, plow had it cleared.

FTR, I've driven plenty of full locking 4x4s on the farm in the snow - totally different application, and single purpose type vehicle - good in mud and deep snow, otherwise not fun to live with daily.

I'm still laughing that you think my *****, or my ego has anything to do with my wife's SUV. little court jester just keeps believing his opinion matters.

False Assumption Counter now at 7.

Hio: stfu you dumbass. You don't know **** about ****



i didn't go looking for 30+" of snow either. It found me. It's found this area quite a few times in my life. 15" just found me before Christmas.

And i can tell you these newer awd suv cheesey pos with their low profile tires and taunt suspension ain't worth a **** in snow. Anyone with 1/3 of a brain knows that don't work in low traction situations. Luckily they plow roads for people like you.


it all needs traction dumbass.

There's things you can do with a full locked 4x4 that simply don't work with awd. Maybe nw wife can tell you about that because nw sure as **** don't know.

You've never driven a full locked 4x4.....there is no doubt about that. You like soccer mom **** and driving on plowed roads. You need a vehicle with "snow mode"🤣 . And that's ok but no comparison .




But yet you chimed in with no ******* experience in anything on the topic......weird.

It's funny that he is less than 5 miles from my house in the middle of nowhere Alberta. They (him and his son) are currently in the process of building a wild 56 Apache.
