Which would you prefer on a road car and why?
I've never driven an AWD car so I, unfortunately, can't start this off.

where I'm living for the next few years for school it makes more sense for 4/All wheel because our seasons consist of winter and july

Unless you go on rough terrain, or gravel often, Rear Wheel Drive is normally better. It's just more fun.

Rear wheel drive. Unless you have poor terrain conditions four wheel drive is useless, since cars are usually thristier, slower and handle poorly.
I personally even prefer front wheel drive to four wheel drive.

Depends on what you want to do with the car, the conditions of the roads in your area, and what you are looking for in a car.
A RWD car can be more fun, while in an AWD you can go round corners faster, though this is just a general rule and not always the case.

i've seen people put too much faith in AWD, same end result as any other car.
RWD for me...AWD is a compromise for the weak.

RWD, unless I was to be living somewhere where it snows all through winter.

why does the poll not include FWD as an option? It is superior to RWD in winter (except for rear engined vehicles possibly) and more stable under normal driving conditions, which is what the vast majority of every day drivers will experience.....

I said AWD because I like quattro.
And a bit of fun offroad.
Though I do drive a RWD car and I love it.

Rear Wheel Drive

with rear wheels drive you can do burn outs, power sliding
Fanatic
You can do burnouts in anything, and and AWD is arguably better at powersliding... unless you mean drifting.

I would choose RWD, only if i lived in a snowy contry would i consider chosing AWD.

What about the steering. Or traction.
I could notice that in the 170bhp Mini. Imagine if you up the power.
