Even in the snow? I've had people telling me not to bother with AWD and just get snow tires instead, but I'm still not convinced.

In snow I would rather have it than not have it.

Snow tires make a monumental difference. Doesn't hurt to have AWD/4WD if you can afford the lower mpg.

AWD without snow tires does nothing except power each wheel as you slide into the ditch.

Around here, you're basically forced to get either an SUV or bigger if you want AWD. But I don't really want an SUV. :/ BUT I still want something that will go well in the snow because Ohio can get pretty bad in the winter.

nearest Subaru dealer is a few hours away. I wouldn't mind going to get it, but I wouldn't want to have to drive that far every time it needed maintenance.

I'm an Ohioan myself. Where you at?

I'm near Cleveland. Snow tires almost made me feel invincible. Like too safe when I had a FWD car

I have a Fiesta ST and snow tires. I can get anywhere when everyone else is white knuckling their way around.

Snow tires get the job done.

Edit: I live in Michigan.

Not sure about active driving but you are way more likely to get stuck if you dont have AWD.
