I live in the Midwest and believe in using dedicated winter tires so all my vehicles have them.

* Anyone in a similar climate NOT gotten xDrive and regretted not having it?
* If RWD, do you have any issues in winter driving conditions?
* Does xDrive provide you with noticeably better traction / acceleration in the spring/summer/fall ?
* If xDrive, would you buy it again, knowing what you now know?

Just seeking others' opinions on the need/desire for this initial $2,000 option that adds some weight and likely increased lifetime maintenance costs.
