A properly equiped 2WD pickup will get around better than a poorly equiped AWD luxury SUV.

2WD
tall skinny mud&snow tires
adequate ground clearance
positraction
stickshift
adequate weight in back


vs.

full time all wheel drive
wide, low profile, quiet riding tires
ground effects package
no positraction
automatic transmission
no weight in back.

No argument from me. It should be false advertising to call the modern SUV an off road vehicle.

Two wheel drive anythings are no match for the undeveloped barrier islands on the Outerbanks of NC.
