I would - rep you as a joke but I got too much rep power and dont wanna bring your rep downSo far I've only gotten + reps for this thread.
Anyway, rwd is fine for the winter if you know what you are doing and have proper equipment, we're all agreed on that? The hting is, that when a front wheel drive car has better acceleration initially it results from it's weight being mostly on the front axle. As we all know, 50/50 weight distribution is what you want to go for, and if all cars, regardless of drivetrain had that ideal setup, fwd would be worse at moving off on in the snow. Therefore I think the point about fwd being better is stupid, since what you win (a bit) in moving up an icy hill, you will lose when you understeer into a fence..
Oh yeah, one thing ii didn't mention is that I wouldn't mind a 4wd car if it had a decent 4wd system which it suited the car. For instance I would never buy an Opel Vectra 4x4, but an impreza would be just fine.
Damnit double posted :/
