Glad to see that the AWD was implemented well. It's a vast improvement even in the rain, never-mind snow and ice. I can't help but wonder if one day it will come standard across many models and brands.

Personally, I hope not. I like having the option but for those of us that live in climates where it barely rains, let alone snows, I prefer rear-wheel drive vehicles. (we're having a "cold" spell here in SoCal and it's in the 30s which I know the rest of the country laughs at...
