Not knowing any #'s my biggest gripe right now is I wish they would put an integrated brake controller on it like they do with a F-150.This is what I've been waiting for. I wanted to see what the standard features were and what was included in the packages. Overall I'd say I'm not super impressed but still on the fence between this and an F150.
I hate that stuff.I kinda wish that it was going to have a 4-Auto mode like the F150. Looks like just 2H, 4H, and 4L. It's my understanding that the 4-Auto mode is helpful in bad weather road driving such as a snowy highway, etc. I suppose you could just put it in 4-H though....
Moms third gen Explorer had 4A, operated the same as my wife’s edge for all intents and purposes.4A is not the same as regular 4Hi. It is only available on F150 Lariat trim and above. It operates more like AWD than 4 Hi but is not a true AWD and it uses traction control and other nannies. It can be used on dry roads at any speed without harming the components.
The only one I have been around had a switch like this. There was no 2wd option. (2002 Explorer XLT)I don't think you understand. The '4A' is on the rotary knob with 2H, 4H, and 4L. Must be selected. Doesn't just come on automatically.
No disagreement from me. Maybe the new ones do but I do wish they had some indication that says when it kicks in/out of 4wd.It's still a system that (when selected) engages 4wd automatically as needed, but can be driven on the street in that mode. I'm not sure what the perceived disagreement is.
