Nope not true.

Maybe if you are going cross country skiing and need to get to a hard tp reach trail head but all of the ski areas are on major roads and the ski areas make sure they are clear because they can't sell lift tickets if you can't get there.

I grew up skiing in Colorado and we drove a Datsun station wagon.

The clerance difference between a car and an SUV is a few inches which makes no difference in.a big storn, most SUV's, believe it or not are 2WD, and every car slides on ice especially if you don't know how to drive which many SUV owners don't.

The best safety device for icy and snow packed roads is chains though most people driving luxury SUVs would never dirty themselves by putting them on.

But 4WD and AW2 is really overkill around here and both kill your gas mileage - we get the road conditions that require such cars every few years at best and in any case if you are concerned about safety the best thing you can do in conditions that require AWD is stay home.

There are lots of utilitarian cars with leg room that get better mileage than an Outback SUV.

But there isn't a car brand out there that so succesfully hoodwinks its liberal customers into believing you can be a progressive and drive a gas guzzling SUV.

Wow unhinged much? A Subaru is a gas guzzling SUV???!

As for car brands that hoodwinks liberals - this is the Tesla. Electrical power in the US is dirty and those lithium ion batteries don’t come from fairy dust. [/quote]
