I agree DieselAddict. I've had FWD cars and RWD. I prefer RWD every time. Once you break the wheels loose in FWD, you have no control. FWD is pretty good for not getting stuck (aka starting off from a stop) in snow due to weight over the driving wheels. I'll give that to FWD but that's it.

I also cannot stand the SUV dunder-heads who are driving in snow who think they are on dry pavement. They lack common courtesy. One day they will CAUSE an accident just by causing another driver to react incorrectly and someone will get killed. Well in that case you would hope that they will get what is coming to them. Some folks just don't use their head for anything else but a hat rack.

I have 4 Michelin Arctic Alpins on my 98 turbo--- they are very good in the snow and very noisy with out any snow. How are the Blizzaks for noise??

They're pretty buzzy on dry roads.
