The NPS in Coloroado is a bit overzealous at times, as I experienced a time when I was kicked out of Estes Park with my son after finding a cozy campsite one evening.

I can see having a general rule, such as 4x4s strongly encouraged or even 4x4s only except for *current list of approved vehicles (list is updated online annually), and hopefully they are flexible enough to make these exceptions, especially for the more capable AWD vehicles like the Subaru Wilderness X-drive models.
