My Subaru was great in snow because I was still dogging it, but from a "get to point B" perspective, my Mustang was essentially as good--actually better in deep snow due to increased ground clearance.

The limiting factor is almost always your ability to stop and turn, and very rarely your ability to get moving.

If the snow is deep enough that you can't get going in a Wrangler, you can take half a second to switch to 4 Hi (and likely skip it and go straight to 4lo)
