If your in dirt and doing anything serious where you need any control and no power loss to wheel spin; then the mt2 all the way. Even if it only has a 1 speed tranny is still has 4wheel drive.....I have had plenty of 2 wheel drive cars and trucks in the past and i do have to say they tend to be a little more fun at times compared to 4wheel drives...not to mention easier to maintain. But when it comes down to the serious stuff; the 4wheel drive is a lot easier to control and doesnt suffer from power loss like a 2wheel drive does, even if the 2wheel drive has a 2speed in it....
