[s-cars] quattro - no substitute

Yeah, except the Pilot's AWD sucks as well (Borg Warner Clutchpak System).
I can't find it at the moment but somewhere I read a very hilarious article
about a guy in a Pathfinder having to pull his sister out near Lake Tahoe in
her Pilot.  Of course the Pathfinder is one of the only vehicles other than
Audi to have a Torsen diff.

You guys are right about that.  After 11 years of pestering the wife and
trying to convince her that the 911 is really a practical everyday driver, I
of course had to get to work at 6 am when there were in 6 inches of snow on
the ground.  Never mind the fact that I busted the budget and have to wait
until next year for snow tires.  Took me 5 minutes just to get out of the
driveway.  Fishtailed it 6 miles before I remembered to take the long way to
avoid a hill.  Had to make 3 attempts and get a head start, blew through a
red light and finally made it up the hill.  Parked the car and called the
wife to tell her that I made it.  She said - You should have taken my car
(Honda Pilot).  What, and never hear the end of it?  Naahhhhh.  The 911 did
just fine, just no match for the S6 with snows.
