Best Cars to Insure

I am renting a car for state driving. Which car is safer to drive in snow conditions - truck or sedan?

1. The truck is more susceptible to sliding, unless it's 4 wheel drive and you know what you're doing. The car will get better mileage. A front wheel drive 4 door sedan usually has the best center of gravity - a good thing when in snow or on ice. Good Luck
2. Trucks are very light in the rear and tend to skid easily. A sedan is much safer to drive in snow.
3. I would say the car is overall better. In either case 99% is with the driver skills
4. I you can get a AWD sedan, that would be the best. If both the sedan and truck come with 2WD, I'd still go with the sedan. A car is naturally better balanced than a truck but, I would Go for the truck if its the only one with 4WD.
5. It is the driver and their experience that makes the difference. I go up hills on packed snow in my rear wheel drive, that 4 wheel drive trucks and SUVs had trouble with.
6. Always go with a sedan for better traction and control.
7. Trucks are only good for getting out of deep snow situations (Parking spots). But for actual driving on highways and most city street, you will have better control with a sedan.
