Wrong. I was able to take off faster and hold the road longer with the SVX than an FX45 (yea i know but wait...), an 03 Explorer, and a Dorango. I think that making the statement the the SVX sucks in the snow is harsh, and untrue. It is at the very worst,...fair.

I bet the Durango and Explorer weren't in 4WD.

Fair might be a better word. Afterall, Tthe AWD pulls you out of parking spots and gets you up SOME hills, but, compared to, say, a Jeep, it's all over the road. There is nothing to stop you from skidding around an icy turn and flying off into a ditch! If you believe otherwise, as other members here have, be prepared to have a major accident.

Also, one other thing I've noticed is the SVX tends to slide easier than most cars. I used to have a little Honda that I could fly around corners on snow-packed streets. It would slide for a few seconds, then staighten out. The SVX, on the other hand, keeps sliding untill you hit something. Well...Based on my experience it does.
