4WD is only usefull accelerating from 0-5Mph at a stop or red light. Offroading or with a plow in front, still under 5Mph. It doesn't brake or steer better that 2WD, Tire make that difference. Even, 4WD worsen the situation by leaving some torque on tire when friction between tire/surface is limited. Tire track best when ''free wheelling''. For most(99.9%) usage, 4WD is a worthless option. 4WD is for gay driver that want to be seen as men. If you want to prove that you are not a gay driver, show me how you drive a stick, a 3-tree, super 8, 10-13-15-18 sp, Let's lower the bar even lower for gay driving skill, can you do a WOT for 20-30sec? With some driver, I wouldn't be afraid to be a passenger, with most other ''TERRIFIED''

Phallus lickers like you need to be at gay days in Orlando.

A 2WD Truck is like buying a car with a branded title. You just killed 75%+ of your buyers which murders resale. I have been a licensed rebuilder here in Illinois for decades. And for the last 15+ years, all we do are rebuilds. Sold 2 yesterday. You could not be more wrong. On both counts.

Anything over a 10 speed is because the truck has no torque... We had one truck we serviced regularly that was a 998 cid Mack V8 with a 15 speed transmission in it. I would bet that truck could top 120 MPH.

My best friend owns a few new car dealerships in El Paso, TX and I wanted to buy my wife a clean, low mile AWD SUV from him a few years ago. So I asked him to keep an eye out for something................it was quite a while before he found something and I wondered why. He told me that most dealerships below a certain U.S. latitude do not get AWD or 4x4 vehicles shipped or sent to them and have to be ordered if a customer wants one. Around here (Northern Ohio) the local dealers are loaded with AWD, FWD, 4x4 etc., vehicles being above the U.S. latitude of mud, snow and elevation. I can see in places that are below the "4X4/AWD latitude" there is plenty of need for this type of 4X4 drive line and I wouldn't want to own a rear wheel drive pickup working construction, farm or any place that I needed to get to that wasn't paved......even a long sand driveway or beach area. A little rant about pickup trucks no matter what the drive line is that it seems to me about 50% or more of the owners NEVER use the bed of their pickup and only seemed to have bought one because well, because of the image a pickup has or an image the owner needs. Not saying all but it's pretty rare to see a pickup that has mud on the tires and wheels or looks like it is used like a pickup and not a front wheel drive minivan

You dissing 2wds ... saying there’s almost zero value vs 4wd ... FIND ME a decent priced 2wd 12 valve with a 355 and I’ll shower you with praise! Hmm, I have one but not sure I want to sell it and you're cheap.
