The ABS probably is an advantage but I still drive mine as if it does 
not have abs. Occasionally in winter I will hear/feel the slight 
vibration on the brake pedal that tells me it is activating the abs due 
to slipping on ice as I am trying to slow down. Re: traction control, I 
hear that it needs to be turned off if you are in a slow speed, deep 
snow situation. Not personal experience since I don't have anything new 
enough to have traction control.
