RWD cars give the best driving experience
FWD cars give more secure drive
AWD cars are best overall, but most expensive of the bunch.

4 new tires is next thing on my carlist. What brand did you take and how much did it cost?

of course it's not.
RWD cars tend to oversteer, causing you to "drift" through corners, and worse = spin out.
FWD cars tend to understeer, causing you to miss the corner and end up in the ballustrade
AWD cars can't take corners as fast as RWD, but they are better than FWD cars.

and best argument of all: with AWD car you can go driving more offroad. Or you can park next to my house with an AWD car, with a RWD/FWD car you get stuck in the mud

Those are personal and changes from person to person so it's discussable. And no your opinion = not the same as proven data or always a fact.
