I had a buddy with a Jeep CJ5, he said in 2wd it was the worst, but in 4wd, it was the best on slippery roads.
I don't need weight in the truck bed -- if it gets slippery I just engage 4WD and have zero problems. Obviously though more weight in the back would give even better traction.
The cities clean up the roads really fast up here since snow is so common, and people take their time when driving.
