I respectfully disagree! I have been driving Crown Vics for the last 28 years as a Police Officer. We only put snow tires on the rear wheels. Never a problem ever using this method.
FWD cars are far superior in winter. Every RWD I have driven including a crown vic with sandbags in the trunk and winters all around still were terrible in winter. Why wouldnt you put winters on the front too? Its definitely going to be better than all seasons. I remember being in a mustang, not a winter car...id put winters all around. Peace of mind is worth a couple hundred bucks.
Again I respectfully disagree! I have been driving Police Interceptor Crown Vic's for 28 years! They are just fine in the snow with snow tires mounted on the rear drive wheels and weight in the trunk! I've been in many major storms in that car & was just fine! Same on my civilian 2011 LX! No issues with snow!
