I haven't driven a GM vintage FWD Saab, but if they are anything like C900s, you don't get stuck in snow unless you're doing something wrong.
It happened to me 3 times in 28 years of C900 driving, never the car's "fault" (intentionally driving into a snowbank to pre-start an airplane engine; parked in the woods overnight during a blizzard and snow melted and froze; modified my C900 to about 240hp, put on high performance summer tires and kept them on too late in the season)
That being said, XWD would practically let you plow snow, if you could rig a plow. The problem is the other cars on the road who get in your way. XWD is awesome in the summer, too. However, I have snows and high performance tires for both my 9-3 and C900.
