I don't know. Snow tires will get you home on a plowed road in a Z or stang, but AWD is godsend on un-plowed roads. I use to have a 2wd Jeep with snow tires and got stuck in 6" of snow in an unplowed parking lot. I'm just saying AWD and snow tires if you wish, would be far better. Since he has or will have a 4wd beater, it doesn't really matter now.

I agree AWD with snows would be better, but even in 5-6" of unplowed stuff I made it just fine in my 5.0 with Dunlop Wintersports.

But yeah, if I knew I was going to be driving in snow alot, I'd want an AWD option with good clearance... like a Ford Raptor.

I'm so tempted to get a Ford Raptor, that truck is beastly!
