how have your trucks been in the snow the last few days? i got two 80lb bags in the bed of the ZR2 to help. it gets alittle squirrely in 2wd sometimes, so it seemed to help. in 4wd mine is awesome, but my drive to work is mostly highway, so i dunno how fast i can go in 4wd w/o messin something up.

4x4 as fast as you truck can go is fine… in a straight line. Same thing as awd, except awd has a limited slip in the t case. part time 4x4 is locked together. Just like driving a locked rear ended street car. lots of wheel hop. except, now you have weak ass u-joints that like to die when you do that.
