I have an 02 Jaguar X type AWD (60 rear-40 front)
It FEELS like a rear wheel drive car, it handles like a 4 wheel drive
truck. I did get it stuck in 18" of snow and with a quick reverse then
forward, it drove right out. It never slips or slids on the ice or snow.
And it handles damn good on dry pavement. Not like some giant roll over
mobile with 4 wd.
It has 4 doors and a large water tight truck, sort of like a 4 door
truck with a tonnoeu cover ;)
All that and it was cheaper than a jeep 4wd.
