We drive on snow pack a lot during the winter. No sand. No salt. Just snow pack. 4WD does help you slow down for intersections, stop signs, emergencies, etc. You've got all 4 wheels decelerating instead of 2 and with an auto trans it can be dropped down to lower gears quite smoothly and efficiently. My truck has an "S" mode that allows the driver to just nudge the shift lever into whatever gear desired. Coming up on a stop sign in 6th, just start dropping it down through the gears and by the time you're at the stop sign you'll be in low and you'll hardly have to use the brakes. This is assuming you don't have baloney tires, of course. Brand new 20" Blizzaks in my case. They do work great.
