I find that interesting.

My 4WD engages only when necessary, but I rarely use that setting.

When driving, not towing, over 9,000 feet, when the powder snow on top of the plowed road is two feet deep, I prefer our trucks over our Lexus AWD SUV.

Today's 4WD is a lot better than what I was driving in the 1970's.

Sometimes, but rarely, I use low range. Our Lexus does not have that setting. To the best of my knowledge no AWD vehicle has low range. Low range is only available on 4WD. but I could easily be wrong about that.
