snow time

Can we please dispel this idea that AWD or 4WD is somehow the end-all of snow safety? In many ways, it's more dangerous since it helps you 'go' but does

Can we please dispel this idea that AWD or 4WD is somehow the end-all of snow safety? In many ways, it's more dangerous since it helps you 'go' but does nothing to help you stop or turn. If you buy an Audi with quattro or a 4WD Jeep Cherokee but have bald tires, you're still fu*ked. AWD just makes you less likely to get stuck in snow, and that's never been an issue in my Z with snow tires.
