Yo Blue,
Our '01, non X-Drive, with dedicated snows was nearly
bullet proof on our very steep Mtn roads and, in the
many high speed haul azz trips back and forth from
NC to NJ/NY.

It is an expense and trade off, handling-wise, but
dedicated snows are like wearing sneakers in lieu
of slipon, leather sole, Ferragamos to play street
ball in...I can only imagine XDrive with snows!

If you drive in snow a couple times per year, it's
probably not worth it. If you are driving more often
and wanna spend the dough and time to do the
seasonal swap, the diff is freakin amazing...
not bulletproof, but amazing, imo.
GL,mD

PS: Did you get your D's Cougar snow tarred'?
