Where 4wd comes in handy these days is on trucks or cars that are wearing highway tires and have to get through some mud or snow. I don't care what anyone says, you put a set of these modern, wide, all season radial types on something comes either 2 or 4wd and put them on the 4wd and put some good old fashioned narrow snows, like the old F32, on the 2wd and there won't be much difference in how far they get.

Those old narrow snows were great. Studded they were even better on ice. Add chains and you could go until you were just being stupid.
