Default AWD or FWD. How do I decide?

I live in So Cal. Is the AWD still highly recommended?

AWD does provide benefits on wet roads so it may be worth considering depending on what types of roads you drive on. You would need to consider the added cost, reduced mileage, and potential maintenance costs as well.
