When you need it, you need it. I don't buy that it'll only get me stuck further from help. I've used it way too many times to get out of a slimy area that I drove into early when the road was frozen, and came out after the sun came out and melted everything...among many other situations.

Getting out to put chains on to make it through a 10 yard long mud hole just doesn't make sense to me when I can just flip a switch instead. It does cost more and require more maintenance, but I am more than willing to take that trade off.

This exact thing happened to me today...glad I didn't have to do any stupid chit to make it out of the hunting spot. Threw it in 4, cruised on until met pavement. Funny how some people scratch and claw to fight against progress...

This would have sucked in 2WD...

Also, going up rocky mountains in 2WD is extremely hard. 4 just crawls up...
