Are 4x4 SUV's (not AWD's) better in bad weather than 4x4 pickup trucks?

If you have an SUV with a real 4WD system like the Toyota 4Runner or Nissan X-Terra (NOT AWD folks) then wouldn't that be a lot better in bad weather than a 4x4 pickup truck? I'm asking because trucks are so light in the rear whereas an SUV, like a car, has more weight in the front. Or will an SUV that's rear-wheel drive with a true 4x4 system still fish tail like a truck because it's also rear-wheel drive? Does that make sense?
