We now have a ton of snow in Cleveland and I've been "playing" more with the SH-AWD system. You really do have to figure it out to get it to work for you.
For instance, taking turns in the snow. You really do have get on the gas in the turn and the RDXs rear end will swing around nice. If you just are light on the gas you really won't notice that and will think the FWD portion is just the only thing working.
