It's funny how they cite stuff like snow, or having to carry a shitload of gear around. see that right there is the problem. They choose a mediocre vehicle that tries to be a one-size-fits-all solution yet in doing so sucks at everything.
You don't need 4WD to drive on snow, you need studded tires to get grip on the black ice below it. With good tires any old FWD or RWD car gets the job done. On icy roads it more important to be able to stop fast than to accelerate fast anyway.
As for equipment, they could easily use different vehicles for different tasks. If this one-size-fits-all mentality continues it won't take long until we [see cops doing police chases in Volvo FHs](https://oyvei.raccoons.space/2023/02/27/7a2e01c1a9b1aaa6dcbd2e7a36d160ab.jpg) 🤡🌎
