werd. Waste of time. If you want any AWD at all, the crv drivetrain is the one to have, and even that one only transfers ~10% of the power to the rear. If you want AWD for the performance, go get a subaru, if just for daily driving in the snow/rain/weather, I say stay FWD, or just get a CR-V. They are nice. I don't know much about the k24 CR-V drivetrains though, or the new SL's SH-AWD, but that is way over all of our heads.
