Highlander Newbie: Good for snow or not?
I've read and re-read a bunch of the messages re: the Hybrid, 4WD, traction control, etc. Here's my concern...
I live in Massachusetts. It snows here. Quite often in the winter, at that. I am pretty close to trading in my Toureg for a Highlander Hybrid specifically for two reasons: 1. I need good gas mileage and the Toureg's 12.5mpg is killing me.... and 2. I need a 4WD/AWD vehicle to get me around my hilly neighborhood.
If I get the Highlander Hybrid, it seems to be that getting stuck in the snow is actually going to happen frequently... is this a fair assumption based on the previous posts re: traction control and the system shutting down?
Thanks!
