The best drive systems for all weather traction are one that keep your automobile from loosing control and wrecking into any thing. Looking at that fact one would think an automobile technician would have long ago come up with a system that works safely on any road around the world. Unfortunately that has never been possible because every vehicle model has been developed to be driven for different reasons. Long haul tractor trailers even take a special drivers license to be used legally. Four wheel drive jeeps take a lot of experience just to keep them from rolling over in the mountains.
Lets just start out by looking at motorcycles. These light vehicles tend to get high fuel mileage and are becoming more widely ridden. This form of transportation is easy to evaluate because they just have two wheels. None of them are equipped with a fancy drive system. In this case the most important thing is the tire tread. Especially on the front tire. In the old days chopper builders used wheels with straight treads. That made the bike more dangerous when it was ridden in the rain. Now chopper riders can purchase front tires that have twisted tread. They are now a lot safer to ride when ever it rains.
Next we might as well glance at another form of enjoyment. Four wheel drive jeeps are off road vehicles. They have been used to drive in the forest for several years. That basically means no fancy high tech drive system is needed. There is probably no satellite that can detect the proper time to stop and shoot at the deer that has just been spotted. Jeep drivers have to be just as alert and cautious in the mountains that bikers are during rush hour traffic. Jeeps just must be running tires that have the right treads for where ever the vehicle is driven. That means thicker treads will keep one from getting stuck in the snow or heavy rain fall
Now it's about time to get away from playing around. There are numerous types of vehicles that are used to do some work with. That means most people do not own a tractor trailer rig to hit some vacation in. They own it to make a living with..In the case of those giant rigs that pull double or tripple trailers a drive system would be just like the diving system used in submarines. It would have to be so sophisticated because all the loads are not exactly the same and the truck has to be driven through a large amount of traffic situations. Rush hour in one large community usually is a lot different than rush hour in another. This form of
