Not to turn your thread into a giant Audi-fest, but I love this video, and yours just reminded me of it! It's Ezra Dyer who writes for the NY Times and Automobile:

You can take better advantage of all-wheel-drive on dry Texas roads than you can on snow-covered ones. All cars suck in the snow. Not all cars are truly great in the dry. It's all about how much grip the all-wheel-drive gives you.

Cold, rainy and miserable. I'd swear I've been transported to Seattle, WA.
I'm getting RWD for the same reason - HOONING! Can't hoon nearly as much in the Audi; just point and shoot, and get there really fast. I'm just making the point that most people think AWD is only good for snow.

snow tires on a proper front wheel drive will get you a lot of places. Funny thing is I got it for the all around factor. Dirt roads, broken roads, driving to Colorado "those mountain roads ". Perfect road trip car. Got us out of a slip spot on the way to new Orleans without having to get out and push. That's one of my only complaints. The gas tank on the frs is small. This is not a 2+ hour road trip car for sure. Even though the mpg is amazing in the frs 1 or 2 extra gallons would be nice. Btw you need to come down here everyone is at the pool. I got a nice cold corona for you :$

I've been dying to get down there; my friend just came back from Austin and he's like "so when are we moving to Texas?"
