I have the Saabaru Aero (turbo) in an automatic. Very slow until 3k, then it is a totally different car. We shall see how it does in the snow at low RPM's for me, but all I will say for being in the boost is that I make it over Berthoud Pass in the snow way faster than in the 4runner. For the 4runner I would prefer a supercharger for the low end and low speed benefits.

I was able to break the Saabaru loose on a dry road with hankook iPike snow tires, that had liquid mag chloride on it. That s**t is way nasty to drive on. The tires did not break loose like that on snow.
