The spec for my 4WD Loyale wagon calls out -0.2" of toe in (i.e., toe out) on the front, vs. +0.2" front toe-in on the FWD models.

I suspect this is because, when in 4WD, there is no center diff, so it would tend understeer pretty badly with a neutral alignment. As-is it will pull a nice power-on oversteer on snow
