the trouble with fwd is if you are on an icy road and happen to let off the gas a little too abruptly the front ene will lose traction. A good friend of my folks died by hitting a tree on an icy road. She lived in Michigan and was very experienced on ice and snow but this was her first fwd.

I prefer rwd in all circumstances except getting out of a parking space in deep snow.
