That may be true, my little two door coupe sucks in the snow, in fact I've almost gotten stuck a couple of times. On the other hand, I drove an Accord for almost four years that was GREAT in the snow. My passengers would often comment on how well it was handling and I rarely had traction problems. I lost control once and that was at 2a.m on a patch of black ice and I'm pretty sure I would have spun out in any vehicle. The issue isn't four wheel drive. Any decent weight and wheel base width and you're fine.
