6 Wheel Drive vs. 8 Wheel Drive

But if FIRST followed a "truth in advertising" philosophy for the registration kits, they would contain six cannisters labeled: "Stress", "Anxiety", "Confusion", "Insomnia", "Dietary Inadequacy", "Unbalanced Priorities" And a really big seventh one labeled "Fun" :) - dlavery [more]

Re: 6 Wheel Drive vs. 8 Wheel Drive

Our 8wd this year tends to rock very high in the air when direction is changed very quickly. Our 6wd from 2011 stays on the ground much more easily, but I haven't driven it recently enough (or enough in general) to know if it turns better or worse.

If you don't mind, why did you guys use a 6wd in 2011 after having used 8wd in 2010?
