This was my dilemma as well when I was interested in a fat bike. I expected them to be able to do much more than a typical mountain bike, but they really can't. There's a very small niche of weather that they can ride in that mountain bikes can't. For me, it's not enough to justify buying another bike. However, I've heard they're just REALLY fun to ride.
