OP said you would like it to be much easier, than yes - yes it would be much easier. I'm originally from the UP and I had a 2-wheel drive vehicle and a 4-wheel drive while living up there. If I had to ever live there again, I would have 4-wheel drive or AWD. You can get around with 2-wheel for sure, but 4-wheel/AWD will make winters much easier on you.

We live in the U.P., although not in Houghton- it's true, they are diligent about keeping the roads up in the winter- but we do have a 4wd, and I wouldn't drive without one, lol. My vehicle slid down a hill last winter even WITH 4wd, I would probably still be sliding had I not had it, haha.
