Yes, my "standards" for the early morning (fresh untracked snow) drive from Bend or Sun River to Mt Bachelor has been either an "AWD" Ford Aerostar, or a Jeep Cherokee Limited. The Aerostar AWD is 30/70 F/R without wheelslip/spin and 50/50 otherwise. The Jeep is now in "retirement" on a cattle ranch in north central MT, but we continue to rely on the Ford. I don't remember a time wherein the Mt bachelor road was closed nor the Portland/Mt Hood highway, Meadows being the only exception. But I would guess the commercial interests apply enough pressure not to close those roads and there is clearly an expectation, mostly justified, that folks traveling "these" roads are prepared for the experience. Years ago on the way to Mt Bachelor I was told to put all four chains on our Jeep as all four wheels were "driven". But for me the big, GREAT, advantage to snow chains is the ability to pass, drive right on by, those that are stalled, spinning, or even over in the ditch as a result of thinking that AWD, 4WD, or 4X4, would suffice. In the Jeep there were even countless times that I was able to take to the ditch to get around "clusters" of vehicles scattered helter-skelter all over the roadbed. Vivid images, memories of December of 1990, here on the eastside of Seattle, SR520, comes to mind. BMWs, Porsches, MBs, the pungent smell of burning rubber, spread all the slight incline into the Microsoft Campus. Poor souls... But looking back a bit, 1961-65, I survived some very severe winter driving in MT with RWD and the use of tire chains when/if needed. So in my mind I think I would rather put my trust in that configuration over and above most modern day AWD versions, but most certainly above ANY FWD or front biased AWD system. It no longer suffices to simply say AWD, that doesn't nearly convey enough information to the reader. Clearly, some of the AWD systems out there in the marketplace today are just barely improvements over FWD, not nearly up to snuff when compared to a simple RWD.

Gliding, listening to the wind, and smelling the spring air was one beautiful combination that without a HH ticket one would not understand completely. Just beautiful! YYYaaaa! I am with you on this all the way. Hit a country lane, meadows and wild flowers on both sides, on a crisp clear spring morning, glide and smell the crisp fresh mountain pine, NOT the exhaust from my own tailpipe :). We went to Pinnacles national monument a couple of weeks ago and as we pulled up to the gate station, Mr. Range asked that we turn off the engine :) but he was actually hearing the blower. So we turned off the fan and everything went silent. He talked to us a bit, gave us the info and brochure and as we pulled away, he yelled, "Love that hybrid!!!". Guess he noticed :). With that salute, we ran on electric all the way on the flat portion until we hit the climb to the ranger HQ . Then we ran on electric around the ranger station looking for a parking space and 2 more rangers came up to talk to us about hybrids. We can argue all about money, gas mileage, battery acid and so on but I must say, there is nothing like driving on full electric at a national park. Next stop, Yosemite Valley! :)
Anti Freeze Smell

I have a 2000 dakota quad cab. Everytime I put the heater on I get a distinctive oder of fresh anti freeze. I don't see any leaks or wet spots but I did loose half a gal. somewhere. I am calling service in the morning. I was just wondering if anyone had the same problem. I hope that I don't get the poor service that I've read about in the posts. Truck only has 9,000 miles on it.
