Suzuki SX4 in the snow

Anyone have any personal experiences?  The crossover is awd and on a google search I found a forum and all they said was "it's great".  I'm not really looking at buying one but I've been seeing commercials and stuff and it's kinda hard to not take a second look at a sub-$20k compact that can do 28 highway mpg's.

Found this video on youtube thats worth a look.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhPeG-6ujGE

It's a turbo  sx4 crossover running at 7psi that almost sounds like a subaru boxer.  The kit is WAAAAY over priced.  It looks like a really solid kit though.  Solid enough for Suzuki to be considering making that kit a dealer option.

With that said, bring on the "get a WRX!11!1!!!" comments haha.

One of my friends has one, they are pretty solid. A trifle small in my opinion.

The car I drive is a Jeep Patriot, I have driven through 4 feet of snow somehow and continued on going (of course it rode up on top somewhat but it powered through) I have a manual and get up to 29 MPG its pretty chill. And there's tons of room. Plus its in that under 20k price range. Just a thought.

No offense but the patriot I just don't get.  To me it just seems like a less expensive liberty with a little rounder styling.

pretty sure you might be referring to the compass? I think the patriot is boxier than the liberty.
