Second time ever?

That’s the nice thing about modern all wheel drive systems — they have automatic modes of operation. You usually can engage them if you want, but they will engage if needed without intervention.

Of course, they won’t go very far in true off-road situations. Or tow very much weight.

It’s nice here now. Tomorrow morning the rain comes, possible sleet, etc. when it starts. By game time tomorrow 50 degrees, rain and 25 mph gusts.

Second time with this 4x4-I used the 4WD in my old Blazer many times over the years. I prefer to use 4WD when I think it makes sense-not when the vehicle computer does-one of the many reasons I drive older vehicles even at the rare times when I can afford a newer one...

I have a trailer hitch on this 4x4 and I have used it-and off-road situations are always possible out here-all it takes to make one is having that creek crossing be flooded or have a bit more ice on it, and it is around and overland to get to the main farm road-the only way out of here...
