    Got to try out the 2013 trd offroad in 4 high tonight on ice covered with a layer of snow, i just recently put on a topper which give me extra weight, i went up some long steep incline roads without a problem, i was expecting a litte slippage from time to time and it did not happen, way better than my first gen regular cab with a topper on it, the first gen would go but you had some spinning on these same hills in 4 high, i think this is going to be a keeper.

    I used to have to get out and lock in hubs, then get back in and put in 4H or 4L. Its awesome to just turn a selector now.

    Oh god i remember those days i had a 73 gmc long wheel base with lockouts and a 81 jeep, especially when it was colder than hell, actually the jeep went good in the blizzard of 93 with 17"of snow on the ground but i sure was glad to get back to the house that morning i thought i screwed up when i was hitting the 3 and 4 ft snow drifts
