All wheel drive vehicles still only have 4 brakes. Same as a 2wd.
Yes, Big brakes help.
This is why so many 4x4s end up in the ditch in the winter.
Drivers feel that because they have added traction of 4 wheels while under acceleration that they have the same advantage stopping.
Engine braking yes, emergency braking not so much.
Sorry to hear of your vehicle loss Raied. Not that it helps, but, your situation could have been much worse.
I'm playing the waiting game with the insurance company after a hail storm and its frustrating not having control over your own property.
