i need your guys help. i need a list of all 4wd cars and trucks. no big suv's like the expidition. no trucks bigger than an f150 or 1500 chevy/dodge. i cannot stand being stranded in stupid weather like this and a front wheel drive car wont make it any where as i got stuck in my own development on the way to work. never made it to work. lol (for those wondering, LOTS OF PACKED SNOW AND ICE!)

so far i have got:

Any Subaru
Ford Explorer
Dakota
f150
Silverado

thanks for the help

 

don't forget jeeps those things are like the original SUVs

 

ford ranger, jeep grand cherokee, all audi's with quattro i think, the fusion offers all wheel drive

 

toyota. i would like to get my hands on a mid to late 80's yota

 

the only imports i do like are subaru's we have had a few in my family never had a problem with them ever.

 

STI....

No but really I would look into an older wrx. My friend has a wagon and its so nice when we go snowboarding and other junk to have all the room

 

Bronco, Fullsize drivetrain and V8 power and low cost something that all these other suvs lack

 

Our 4wd Ford Escape is a BEAST in the snow. Yesterday I passed about 10 stuck cars in it, some were suburbans and stuff.

It's also just a great all around car anyway, and surprisingly fast if you get the V6 one.

 

buy a bronco or an f150

make sure its posi front and rear or having the 4x4 is pointless...

 

Nothing wrong with a good ole Jeep Cherokee (Grand cherokees suck)

 

i would get an older subaru outback and use that they can get a good 300k miles before they need a rebuild. My brothers winter beat is a subaru wagon 1985 modle and has 350k on it and still runs well. No major maintance done. He doesnt rip on hard at all though. From the few subarus we have had i would really sugest one unless you need something with more ground clearance then i would deffinatly say a older f150/bronco just a base modle with 4wd and posi/lockers would be nice in the snow.

 

i know what purestang is frustrated with, that storm sucked. luckily i didnt get stuck anywhere. my buddy out in PA bought an older explorer (he calls it the exploder) for like 500 and it needed a new tranny which he found for 300 i think. it works out well in the snow for him. 4wd and he just gets retread tires and slaps em on.

 

**** jeeps

I hate jeeps

why does everyone buy ****in cherokees

be a man and buy a ford...

 

im looking at a 1997 Silverado. lol

 

if ya get a GM make sure its either diesel or its got a 350

 

and make sure it has posi front and rear...

it kills me how they sell "4x4" truck but only one wheel spins in the rear and one in the front... so if ya think about its still only a 2x4

 

the one i have is the z71 model. so its got the true posi

 

good

 

and a sweet lift w/ 33" tires on bogarts. lol

 

33's look good on a body lift nothing else. if you have a 6 inch lift and body lift then you need to get some 36-37's on that ****.

 

 

i work at a ford dealer ( in canada) so i recently took all of our cars out in the snow to see how they did. f-150, explorer, ranger, etc... all were good IF in 4wd, in 2wd most got stuck/spun ( i was suprised i got an explorer stuck before a ranger in 2wd). Fusion and Edge were ok ( if they had AWD) but tops by far was the escape. The 2wd and 4wd both had incredible traction in the snow/ice. Definatly my choice. I haven't driven a bronco in the snow but i would assume it would be similar to the explorer or f-150 because there is no weight in the back. But it all depends on variables , none of the trucks i drove had any weight in the back if they did im sure the results would have been wayyyy different.

 

Haha that's 2 votes. I'm telling you man it's like no other.

 

broncos are ridiculous offroad...

The difference between the broncos and the new fords is that many broncos were made with 351w and c4 trannys... that added to the fact that most were posi front and rear and a decent turn radius makes them ideal for just about any offroading condition stock

 

How about snow tires? They also stop a lot better then a 4wd car.

 

i had a 97 dodge ramcharger i just got rid of. you couldnt get it stuck in any kind of snow conditions. i never got it stuck in the mud either.

 

The only Bronco to ever have a front locker option was the 1984 to 1987 BroncoII there was never a fullsize bronco with a front locker stock.
