Personally, I've only ever driven RWD vehicles (F150 in high school, Nissan Pickup in college, FRS now), if you're driving fast enough to lose control in a well maintained RWD you'd probably crash a FWD or AWD car too. Yeah a RWD might be less forgiving but you've GOT to be exceeding the limits for reasonable driving on public roads to do it.
Speed limits and roads were designed that way for a reason.
protip: if it's wet, slow the fuck down, seriously think I'm going to die every time I jump on the freeway out here after a rain. Californians don't understand weather, and I'm just as ignorant as the rest of them.
