I'm telling you, a freak snowstorm here or there is very different than what you get in 3 months of real winter. Our first snows of winter are seldom a big deal for anyone here too. The ground isn't frozen 2 feet down, the burms and ruts haven't turned to ice. With a fresh snow, and the first snows, you can find the slushy bottom.

I see it all the time. If people moving here don't abandon ship completely after the first winter they certainly abandon their RWD cars after the first winter. I want to believe the line RWD is better, I've bought RWD hoping, and have had RWD just sit for 3 months of the year. Meanwhile people who just need to get up before the plows run and get to work 6 days a week buy a AWD or at the bare minimum a FWD.
