Cars are better to drive on a nice dry road. They suck in unplowed snow or in the flood, pretty bad even in just a heavy rain. Many places where people live in the US get either or all of the above. Significant number of people die stuck in such conditions in a car[1]. But even though the chances to die are pretty low, an inconvenience of having no means of transportation whenever there are few inches of snow on the road or having to flatbed your superior ride after being caught in a flash flood pushes many people towards objectively more reliable vehicles.
