"I have yet to try the Eurovan with snow tires, and
wouldn't be  surprised if it gets down the road withoug getting stuck since 
it is  much
higher and should clear those high spots."
 
I think you will be amazed at the difference, it is all about ground  
clearance.  About 15 years ago, I had a '89 turbo Plymouth Minivan. I never  
measured the ground clearance, it was significant, it would pull out of just  
about any amount of snow. That was with just M&S tires. Not to mention that  
carrying 1/2 a ton of sand for really bad spots was no problem.  As to the 
AWD's, if there is no traction for 2 wheels, there is no  traction for 4.
