Stupid 4WD knob right next to the AC knobs

Not sure if anyone is having the same problem, by accident i turned the 4wd knob while driving (2nd time now) . Why did they put it right next to the AC knobs, and use the same style for the 4x4 why not keep it up top where the terrain selectors are

 

Part out

 

Fool you once.....

Fool you twice.....

 

Trade it in for a 2wd

 

sounds reasonable.

 

Stupid Knob!

 

Let your wife drive it.

 

That seems dumb. Same shape and everything?


Maybe you could wrap it in something to make it feel different.

The explorer I drove had it on the center console, I hated that too.

 

Do a button to lever conversion

 

I hate it there too. I’m going to have my friend with a 3D printer make a spiked ring to go around it so you know if you accidentally grab it lol

 

Put a piece of flex tape over it.

 

@SweetT would just say duck tape it and be done.

 

@StayinStock bob you have some competition

 

I actually thought about that but didn't know if I should say "duck tape" or "duct tape" so I went with flex tape. Flex anything is awesome, at least the dude on the commercials says so. I've never seen a commercial for duck tape or duct tape.

 

I agree it is in a much sillier place than the second gen (and even it's users complain sometimes) but looking for half a second before you adjust something isn't that hard.

Try flying a Piper Cheyenne with overhead switches.

 

Yes sir. A piece of gorilla tape on it, a little heat and you won’t turn that knob again by accident...or on purpose.

 

At least its not like the RAMs one minute you're trying to turn down the radio next second you're sitting on park on the interstate

 

Try looking at the clock in a 1st gen. Stupid clock location always making me late.

 

Try glancing at the controls for approximately .037 seconds before turning the knob.
