Remember, those of us of a certain age, a lot older than you, grew up with 2WD vehicles; specifically, 2WD vehicles that were RWD. That's all there was.

2WD/RWD took us a lot of places today's 4WD owners fear to go, and (here's a big secret,) don't. I mean that very seriously.

We didn't know a 2WD vehicle, given current thinking, shouldn't take us to the places they did. But, they did; we learned to drive in ice, and snow, and mud, (with 1960s-1970s era tires) because 2WD was what we had.

That said, you didn't grow up in that era.

Learn your vehicle. Really learn to drive it, and it will serve you well for a long time.

On a personal note, because I do what I do, and you're in the 18-23 year old age group (you don't say, but refer to graduation.) Speed does not mean you know how to drive your vehicle. I left road work a long time ago, but if you want to meet my friends, they'll help you slow down.

Listen to Cloudrunner, he gives really excellent advice.
