I grew up in Michigan. I don’t remember anyone ever having anything other than rear wheel drive. Snow, launching boats, etc. Never an issue. I’m actually looking forward to having a rear wheel drive only vehicle again even though I have been a front wheel drive fan for a long time and had one...

Well put! 👍
