Qualifier is that 98% of the "performance" cars I have owned were/are AWD. I am confident it is my crutch, and I am a terrible driver. HAHA.

PS. I almost forgot. It was also because I lived in Truckee/Tahoe for 30 years. I kinda needed it.

Here's the question I always have, and it comes from having grown up in CO, WY, MT, and ND in the 50s: however did those RWD cars with their, compared to today,
really chitty tires, make it through winters tougher than Truckee typically had and has?
IOW, how hard is it really to drive a RWD car in challenging winter conditions if the dads, grandpas, and great-grandpas did it with dramatically worse equipment? This is the question I keep coming back to.
