being raised up on audis, i would venture to say that the expy w good shoes has by far exceeded my expectations on snow/ice/mix. i prefer the precision articulation of the quattro & how it does not use braking to control wheel spin - and hell yea if audi made an expy sized beast & i could afford the mortgage for it then maybe there could be a comparison - but the expy 4wd drive control system, combined with the sheer weight & power just dominates any subtle precision control i’m missing from the quattro. to add, ive got the non-elsd 4wd.
i’ll put it this way - when the snow was crushing us this season, not once did i take out our diesel touareg (haldex audi drive & incredible in the snow). left it at home & took the expy. every. single. time.
