Should've kept the diesel - 2014 Ecoboost

[D_Eclipse9916]

The truck has 4 auto switch. Need to do more research on if it stays in 2wd unless it detects slip or just interchanges between the two 4wd modes...

Now should I be using it often for fun? Yes.

Is it a good idea? Yes.

Will I destroy my transfer case over time? Yes but I won't hard launch it so hoping for lasting a good bit.

Will I leave traction control on? Yes.

Will I be smiling the entire time? Yes.

Will I record a launch with my GoPro for everyone? Yes.

Just leave it in 2wd?  Why even bother with more wear when 100% of the time you'll never be using it.

It's not the hard launches that'll hurt your transfer case (within reason), it's when you are turning a corner and it engages on a dry road.

I use 4-Hi all the time in the winter, 4-LO is almost useless you are a rock-crawler/mudpitter.  I think the only time I have legitimately used 4-LO is when Garrett ran off into a ditch at the bottom of Peter's driveway and I had to tow him out uphill in the snow.  In order to manage traction since I run highway/tow tires, I just idled him out in 4-LO.  Trying to use throttle just blew big plumes of snow/diesel
