Snow tires would be good. It's would be fine on plowed roads but at Highway speeds and snowy road conditions could cause an issue. Most of the time I drive in 2wd during the winter with At tires but there are instances of going up hill or around long bends when 4 wheel comes in handy.

I had a 2017 sr5 rwd and was not pleased with the offroad performance.

In snow? I would think not very. Run some bags of salt in the rear over your rear tires to give a little more traction. That’s what everyone with 2nd trucks does around here when we get a little snow. You could always sell it and probably not lose your butt. Runners are hard to come by. With scarcity come opportunity.

i have a 5th gen. But based on the question, i would probably pick the third gen, the 4th gen is a skipper for me.
