you shouldn't get stuck! ;)
Here's my reasoning: If the car is going to be driven in snow maybe 30 percent of the time (this is hugely exaggerated)why should the marginally better performance of an auto in an isolated incident determine such a major decision?
Autos are GREAT in stop-and-go traffic, but outside of that, there's little utility...
