You keep talking about how long you've been on the board, but who cares? Feel free to link me to the threads that prove 2wds are good offroad. I assure you they are WORTHLESS outside of improved dirt roads in CO.
This really isn't about ego. It's about my inability to understand why someone would buy a minivan that is "dressed up" like a 4x4.

The point's not how long I've been here, it's that this was debated and settled long before you got here.
What you say may be true...in CO. Offroading is obviously very different depending on topography and climate. So whatever's true where you live must apply everywhere else? Yeah, that makes perfect sense.
If you're talking about 4x2 X's as minivans that are dressed up as 4x4's, I really don't get it. Unmodded 4x4's are identical to 4x2's from the outside except for a couple of center caps and some undercarriage stuff most people won't see or recognize anyway. So in effect, you're dissing your own ride.
And finally, if you can't drive what you want and be cool with others who drive what they want, it IS about ego.
