Good snow tires and weight and a 2wd doesn't do half bad. I drive mine through this winter. I didn't have any weight. And remember keep your momentum up, even a 4 wheel drive will suck if you get say on a hill with slush everywhere. Trust me i did the hill in my idi and my moms jeep. I did the hill better with the idi since i keep my speed up and let it ROLL up the hill with no throttle input so the tires wouldn't spin. Also learn to be nice with the gas pedal and feather the throttle. Goes a long way.
