I remember when my dad bought a Subaru. The first bad day he nearly crashed because it was nothing short of astounding how fast he could get going, but the OBW couldn't stop any better than his previous RWD or FWD cars. Add in a lot of weight, and stopping distances get long enough to pay close attention to, even on the best winter tires.
I'm very conscious of this when I drive the Highlander because it's one of the heavier vehicles I've owned (and still a lot lighter than the Sequoia) and I've noticed that no matter the season or tires, getting out of the Corolla and especially the Miata, it needs more room than they do.
And what a trial for tires we've had. From 20cm of snow to intense freezing rain that turned every inch of the city into shiny ice, we've had some days that have pushed winter tires to their limits. On one of the worst evenings I went to the gym as the forecast called for the rain to come after midnight. It arrived early. I've never had the TRACS light on so much as that drive home. I crept up to every intersection because people were just sliding through them all, but I never got out of control or failed to stop when I needed to. Between the nannies, the AWD and the tires, I was able to avoid the carnage. An EPS officer friend of mine reported that a busy day collision wise is 150, and that next day EPS had over 500 reported collisions. Carnage indeed!!
