Hi. Seriously considering getting this vehicle in the fall. Currently own a Drurango. Has anyone had the chance to test the AWD in some serious snow conditions? I'm a little hesitant, due to where we live, to bet a vehicle that doesn't have a locked in 4wd?

Thanks

The system is same as in Acadia, people on Acadia forum had good experience with the AWD driving in the snow (tranny is another issue). But since Enclave wear's specially desgined tires, I don't think it will be relevant to Acaida.

Don't have our Enclave yet, but have been driving since 2003 with an AWD system by GM(Yukon Denali) here in North Idaho without problems. IMO, what tires you have on during winter will make much more difference with regards to traction than whether you have 4WD or AWD.

Thanks for the reply. Also, Does anyone, have a spec for the gorund clearance for this thing. Can't find it anywhere.

Does anyone, have a spec for the gorund clearance for this thing.

8.4 " front & rear, although the Acadia and Outlook claim 7.4".
