What are the advantages and disadvantages of front vs. rear wheel drive vehicles?
Q. Primarily when dealing with mid-to-full-size sedans. * *edit* I live in Tampa, Florida, so snow and ice aren't really much of a problem. I also don't plan on ever driving into an area where I would encounter snow and ice... that's what planes and rental cars are for. Ok, rain is a problem here... I didn't think about that. I've already had one minor collision [4 or 5 years ago] due to skidding on a rainy day... oi. Thanks :)

A. Rear wheel drive offers better performance and is what you will find on most luxury cars (BMW,Mercedes). Will not drive well in bad snow and ice conditions. Front wheel drive is easier to handle in almost all conditions and will drive a lot better in bad snow and ice conditions. Most Common cars (Accord, Sonata, Camry) are front wheel drive.

How can a tow truck tow a vehicle with the parking brake on? What about front and rear wheel drive?
Q. I often see repo tow trucks around town...Ive even seen some of them with automatic wheel lifts so you dont even have to get out of the cab. The question is...what about the parking brake? And how does front and rear wheel drive come into play?

A. You ALWAYS have to get out of the cab to secure the wheels onto the wheel lift. They simply take the ebrake off.
