    I'm driving just as it's getting dark. A little snow blowing around. While keeping my eyes on the road I feel for the heater fan switch to turn it up. And ... I ended up putting it in 4Hi. Has anybody else done this?

    I did the opposite, the first time I went to switch out of 4wd I accidentally turned down the fan.

    No harm done if you're wondering. Snowing so I doubt you were doing 70 mph.

    Nope. The two dials are sufficiently far apart.

    However, I have mixed up the temperature and vent position knobs when trying to turn them without looking. Wish they made the temperature control a horizontal slider.

    Never hit the 4x selector.
    About the quote; When we drove our new truck home the night before last, one of the first things I asked the wife, "was the 4 WD switch illuminated in our old truck?".
    She said no..
    How did you illuminate your dial?

    I have. Or sometimes after the car wash the person cleaning the dash switched it on. That has happened to me twice. Probably just to mess with me.

    Illuminate your 4wd switch and you won't have it happen again.
