SUV vs. Minivan, today's example.
In Pataskala, we probably got 4" of snow last night + drifting. My wife has an AWD SUV. The neighbor has a Caravan. Both driveways are flat.
The Caravan is sitting in their drive stuck right now from earlier this morning. My wife took the kids to McDonalds this morning and never came close to getting stuck.
Disclaimer - any decent driver should never get stuck in 4".
Disclaimer 2 -we are leaving to go test drive a Town and Country Limited now.
And finally - no average person really needs 4wd in Ohio nowadays, although I will never give it up.
