I woke up to the same snow in Connnecticut, too. We have a Volvo XC V70 with AWD. By and large there is little difference between the two (I'm talking in the snow). Anyway, what I also notice is that in addition to the SUVs drivers in Benzs' and VWs' go too fast cause they have AWD and are over confident.
People, simple rule, AWD may help get you going, say, up a hill in deep snow, but it will NOT help you to stop any faster. Doesn't matter if you got AWD, 4x4, or 2 wheel drive - we all stop in the same distance (giving we have ABS).
