@Quaiowe snow has too many variables...is it wet heavy slush? icy? Ive seen cars left on the road and an hour later once it became slushy I drove my camaro past the parked cars on the road...got mine stuck a couple times but a road test isnt a snow test

I like how they don't mention one word of snow...

@TheBjmr Ooh it works my freind. Just not as the rest of the world wants it to. It wont get u out of parkinglots, up a slope, or out of the ditch, it may even get u in one.

But it will get u hella sideways !

this is not a comparison of three different traction philosophies but a blatant advert for the beamer... big disappointment.

@7150285 I had typed out a long-ass reply only to have my phone not let me post it- the original "All-Trac" system from Toyota was a three-differential system and came in one of two flavors. There was the sport version, which used a viscous center coupling as the center diff, and the less-sport flavor used by the Camry series used a manual locked/unlocked center diff. When locked, there is a perfect 50/50 torque split between the front and rear differentials.
