I never complained about traction and GSTSuper16g is FWD so he has a legitament gripe. My gripe is all the weight I have to carry around AND drivetrain drag. It takes a little more HP to turn a transaxle a transfer case a 3 piece driveshaft a rear end 3 differentials 4 axles and 4 heavy ass stock rims than it takes to turn the drivetrain in a civic.

Dont get me wrong Im not bitching. I bought my car for a reason... Because it was exactly what I wanted. But it is no mystical ride with advantages that make other cars look handicapped.
