FWD sucks on the gravel...in fact it sucks generally...

Both snow and gravel makes you loose traction and with little traction fwd is always better (logicly speaking and from what I have read, heard 😛)

Wrong 😉

if if the gravel has multiple established 'tramlines' in it, then with FWD your driving wheels are dragged about as you cross them. With RWD your driving wheels can't be 'hooked' by a line in teh gravel.

If you haven't actually driven a RWD on gravel at speed, then you're right, you've no constructive input in this thread 😉

its exactly the same with snow, tramlines and eveyrthing, even more so than with gravel

gravel roads are alot harder than snow so those lines only form under the worst conditions

all i'm saying is my personal experience of massive amounts of time driving RWD/FWD/AWD on gravel 😉 No snow here 😀

hmmm, so you are missing some experiance as well 😛

How are the gravel roads you have driven on? the ones I have used are usualy very hard so no tracks form

I'm sorry you have such poor driving skills that you need to use RWD as a crutch. 😉 Just be a man, suck it up, and do it the hard way.

i lived & now work in the country, where maybe 90% of the roads in the shire are gravel. So i've driven on thousands of kms of gravel roads 😉 Quite soft here, pea gravel being the main surface ...

😕

i CAN control my FWD car on the gravel, its just vastly easier to drive a RWD/AWD car on the same roads...
