Well, it was front wheel drive. I traded it in for a GMC Canyon. As long as you have studs, and a flat driveway (my problem, steep driveway) you should be fine. Just make sure you have a block heater, or move to a home with a garage. Summers are great up here. Winters, my car did fine while the snow wasn't over 6 inches. After that, it got a little fun, but if you know what you are doing, you should be fine.
