A-Bodies in the snow?
My Duster did OK in Colorado winters, the BFG Radial T/As definitely didn't help but if you can handle a RWD car with some torque these A-bodies are actually pretty solid. I personally hate FWD cars except in some rare cases and I'd rather drive a RWD car with limited-slip and snow tires.
FWIW my "driver" is a 1993 Jeep Cherokee 4x4, 4.0L 5-speed with 200k miles. Bought it for $4000 with 180k miles just two years ago, these vehicles are reliable as a hammer if you take care of them and are amazing off-road in stock form (if you have access to that of course). Get one with the 5-speed stick, they are much more fun to drive and get 2-3 MPG better than the autos, only they are much harder to find.
