Step on the gas and the 4.7L V8 breaks all four wheels loose and you go sliding. Oh yeah, my 4×4 Jeep is super easy to get into trouble with.

Don't assume you can handle it, go practice! Oh, and 4x4 does NOT make you invincible, and doesn't help with braking or steering at all. Its good for starting and some additional traction...if you think you can handle the Glenn Highway(Mat-Su Valley to Anchorage) at 80mph after 6 inchs of snowfall just because you have 4x4, be sure you have the cash to get towed out of the ditch because you WILL end up there.
