Re: RWD vs AWD

Maybe in the thread (What would you change in the next model Terri) we should include a BIG bar fridge, fox sports, and an ensuite. Gee if Big Blue came to the party there would be approx 1900 Aussie males go missing into the bush every month for months on end.
I'm in the same boat with Paulv. However I wasn't really in the market for a new car. Until one day we stopped at the Local dealer and had a captain cook at the car that Alex Lloyd was flogging on the box as AMAZING. After 20 questions from my wife to the sales bloke, we were sold.
We wanted one. Why?
1. Bloody nice looking ride. Inside and out.
2. All the safety options included for our Family of four. (rear air bags big winner)
3. It wasn't a BIG friggin 4WD, so my wife would be comfortable driving it.
4. Price in comparsion to other options on the market, nothing compared.

I debate RWD v AWD for some time. Final decision was RWD. Why?
1. Cost saving (on a budget)
2. Would only need AWD < 2% of driving needs. (if that)
3. RWD slightly cheaper to run and service.

Have had the RWD TS for 3months. To quote UBeautTerri "I Love IT!"
It has 3200km on it to date and has not missed a beat.
Only down side is that I only get to drive it on weekends.
