My Subaru Legacy wagon sometimes drives me crazy with little problems, but I have to admit its AWD system is one of the most sophisticated, and best, on the market.
I’ve yet to spin a wheel in winter driving conditions. The car just goes. Uphill, downhill, around corners. Snow, ice, slush, it just goes. I live a mile from the main road, and it’s uphill all the way. My Legacy has always made it home, regardless of the conditions.
I have a 4WD Ford Ranger, too. Unless the snow is REALLY deep, the Legacy outperforms the Ranger every time.
