My first experience with AWD was a 1990 Nissan Axxess. I loved the way it 
handled itself on slick surfaces, but for some inexplicable reason, Nissan 
chose to put front ABS on the thing, and leave the rear wheels with regular 
disc brakes. It would ground loop quite easily if you had to stop hard in a 
slippery surface.
I just bought my wife a Nissan X-Trail. It is shiftable from FWD to AWD to 
locked differential 4WD. It seems good so far, but it hasn't seen a winter 
yet. My 4WD Titan truck seems to handle most anything.
