AWD is awesome. I love my subie. But don't delude yourself. In ski resort parking lots I've seen FWD shitboxes drive around stuck 4WD pickups because they just slammed the gas and their shitty tires couldn't make it up a hill. Good driving habits > good tires > all wheel drive. All three is awesome, but you should worry about winter driving in that order
