I concur,
They are just fine on snow for a 2WD vehicle. 

About whether Bay buses  and that ilk of vw van 'do better' .........
I thought about that a lot, and I would say they have a higher percentage of
their weight on their rear tires than vanagons do, and my 'go better' in
some situations than a 2WD vanagon,
I'll grant that, but a 2WD vanagon is a fine fine snow vehicle to me, for
2WD.

I take issue with the comment that 2WD are not good in snow!!  I went all
over the place in snow... in Washington State. Even treked across an area
one time that was over two feet deep and it has always amazed me how well
the van handled it. Didn't slip and never got stuck.  I did have Nokia snow
tires :)  Madeline
