how sad, i mean subaru awd is gr8t but so are the others.they pulling up the handbreak on some of the other vehicles to make them not climb.i have a honda crv and i go through all kinds of snow and ice the front slips a little before the rear hooks up but it climb(not as good as my audi awd though) .next time show tests from an independent company not subaru cuz that shit is bias.lol

hold on killab, we have two forester now and when u jack up the front of the the rear wheels immediately engage you don't need to wait it will fall right off the jack the front don't even spin. Infact thats how we moved it when the steering wheel was locked, jacked the front up and drove on a jack with wheels. I have no driven a CRV or worked on one yet but the rav4 and highlander do that the front spin and the back just sits there. Not all the subaru have center locking diffs if 3 tires up and one front down the power will go to those that not touching.

IT HAD A SUBARU AD ON THE END OF IT!!! how much more biased can you get!?!? Even if the same results would come from an independent test, this one doesnt have much credibility.

It falls in line with your conclusion of the Intercooler test....because the people conducting the test has something to gain by proving their product is better

Staying true to my nature.. I don't go by stuff on websites and forums. however this video and the test in there regardless or biasness or whatever it is very very very simple to recreate the same conditions in the test for a variety of different vehicles. On top of that I have worked on a number of awd vehicles and have owned two of them. Most common transverse mounted awd cars tend to be fwd 80% of the time. Same may not apply for those vehicles with active control systems.
