Nothing wrong with most of the rear-drive setups except for winter traction.

My six vehicle fleet of four wheel vehicles, are classified thusly: five are rear wheel drive V-8 engine driven vehicles one of which is four wheel drive if activated.

Only one is all wheel drive four cylinder SUV. It is not clear if the SUV has better winter abilities than the much older Ford Crown Vic former police car. The Crown Vic certainly warms up in winter much faster, and is extremely stable on snow and ice.

Three are stick shift, two five speed one four speed.

Hopefully I can live with the vow of NO electric vehicles in any stable of mine. Consider how many times you would have been stranded if your vehicle behaved like the power company. Surely there isn’t anyone here who has not suffered multiple power outages summer and winter in your location?
