just wondering if anyone ever uses their auto 4wd?
Rocky07 said:SabreXray and GreatWhite496 are absolutely right! When I had my '02 Z71, I used the AWD when driving in heavy rains where it tended to cavitate in standing water. It really does help you to maintain control. My '07 LTZ is 2WD and while I miss that AWD feature, the traction control seems to be a good alternative to those conditions.
Never used it, don't even know if it workskiser02av said:just wondering if anyone ever uses their auto 4wd?

Because it locks the front axle in. The added resistance with the axles shaft spinning contribute to loss of MPG...although 2 MPG seems quite excessive. I can see .5 MPG.kiser02av said:how does it drop your mpg if it never switches over to 4 wheel drive? I guess i could see where it would drop if it did switch.
