Even in snow I prefer over steer to under steer so it's rear wheel drive for me.

Good video that goes over some of the differences and faults.

To answer your original question....front wheel drive seems to be for the average motorist and is supposedly easier to control. Rear wheel drive is for DRIVERS.
