[QUOTE="AustinSN, post: 16365849, member: 159453"] I could compare it to my RS, which also had snow tires. The Fiesta has been in far deeper snow than the RS ever did, and neither car ever struggled slightly, which is sort of the point I'm getting at. Unless you are in an area that gets outrageous amounts of snow, very frequently, and has poor snow removal from the city/town/state, I don't see the reason for AWD over a FWD with a set of snows. Looking back at the original post, he says he will keep the car 7-10 years, at that point either option won't be worth shit anyway if he decides to sell. I don't consider the maintenance to be much worse on AWD over FWD, the biggest difference would be if you lost a tire and had to buy a new set of 4 of them. Diff fluids are like $50 and need to be changed seldom. [/QUOTE]
