That salesman saying "It's more like AWD" was a worthless answer to someone expressing concern over the added components to maintain/service. AWD, if anything, has more to go wrong than traditional 4wd. Certainly not getting away from the extra component concern.

first thing you want to do is get a length of chain or snatch 'um strap to keep in the vehicle. Nothing worse than having 4wd and getting stuck inches away from getting out with 4ed. And, nothing worse than having the ability to help someone out of the ditch... except you have no way to hook up to them. A very lame moment, like not having battery cables.
