Hello all, I am about to close on an '11 Explorer XLT with the rapid spec 202A, tow package and factory cross bars.
I have test driven the car and love it, the only lacking feature I am second guessing is the AWD... We drive 95% on highway, so I am on the fence if we really "need" the AWD or just "want" it?
We have never owned an AWD, we drive FWD passat wagon's currently and we have handled more or less fine the Michigan winters for almost ten years now...
Do people on the forum have FWD vehicles or is AWD king?
I don't mind spending the extra $2K for the AWD, but I don't know if I want to wait two months...
I am a little bit lost here, will the FWD be a dissapointment?, please help!
thanks.
