Because your chassis is very close to 1000 lbs lighter.
And you only have 2WD. AWD is only good for limited traction. Once you have traction, all it does is drain extra power from the engine. Don't get me wrong, I love having AWD, but it does hurt power to the ground numbers. --------------------  |
