    Hey all! I was wondering if it is okay to start and stop your truck while in 4x4? Picture it like this. If I am working in the mud along a fire trail then stop to work, is it okay to stop the truck, turn off the engine, work, then start it back up and move on without turning off 4x4 each time?

    Thanks!

    - Josh
