Does she NEED 4wd? Uh, probably not.. We are from Michigan, so we do get ice and snow, and being directions to our place include "Turn off the paved road" sometimes (specially spring thaw) mud can be an issue..
BUT what I can say is when we get enough snow or mud to need a 4x4, even that isn't going to get you out.. We were "stuck" for about 3 days while we waited for the county to get to our back roads last winter.. Well, I wasn't.. I left the truck in the driveway and rode the snowmobile.
I never had 4x4 until about 3-4 years ago, and I always managed.. But sometimes, ya just let the war department win and get what she wants. Peace is closer that way.. LOL
Thanks to all for the input this far.. Looks like I'm still about where I was when I asked though.. LOL
