Almost every vehicle in that video is a 4wd. And they are beating the crap out of them to prove something.
People think 4wd is absolutely a must if you leave pavement. The opposite has been known for decades.
Four wheel drive is much better off road.
My first car was a 67 Impala, 3 speed, 283, posi. I drove that thing everywhere, the exhaust got ripped for often. All season tires, it went through the snow with no trouble.
But, you needed momentum, you had to feather the throttle, and lug the engine. You had to be very careful of where you parked or stopped.
There used to be a big market here for 2wd work trucks. Bosses bought them for employees, cheaper to buy, run, maintain. Bosses weren't there in a snowstorm when you were stuck in a parking lot. Or someone's yard. Or, stopped on an unplowed hill, and cant get going. That market is gone. Most finally got tired of the hassels.
Used 2wd here is seriously devalued.
But, I honestly go to 2wd in the snow as soon as I get on the road, moving. A little slipping curbs my heavy foot, and I have more control in a skid with free turning steers.
Parents who say they have good kids..Usually don't!
