You mean one of those things. I don't care how many wheels you have
with power. You could have eight wheel drive, but without good snow
tires you're going in the ditch.

On the other hand, many FWD and RWD vehicles with decent snow tires
have been known to successfully navigate the App Gap, as well as
passes and canyons in the Rocky Mountains during snowstorms.
