I strongly disagree on this one. It may be able to climb over obstacles
as high as a 4X4, but it doesn't have the traction to get up steep
slopes or through mud/snow. There have been many cases where I have had
my 4X4 in 2WD and tried to go up a hill covered in snow. The back end
just slides around and spins, you get nowhere fast. When I throw it
into 4WD, I climb it without a problem.
