All so if you run in grass the MT2 will do a much better job because of the 4-wheel drive. Just read some of the posts in the Jato thread. Off road as far as handling you cannot do better then 4-wheel drive. I have both 2 and 4 wheels drive and the 4-wheel drive handles SO much better. Do not run on road but I would think as far as handling it would all so be better. Look at all the full size vehicles that push 4-wheel drive on the road.
