my 2013 has it and when its raining or expect slick or freezing stuff. it stays in the 4A mode, gives me a bit more peace of mind.
we got it so it can be towed four down....easier
but the auto feature has engaged many times or at least i think so, on slippery roads.

So I ordered a Lariat with the mindset of "I need to have the 4A". This is my third truck, and the first two were the traditional "shift into 4wd" when you need it. I was always a little uneasy about how squirrelly the rear end would get on wet roads, taking off from stop signs or turning sharp right and having one wheel start spinning. Obviously damp roads would just about never justify engaging 4wd, but how are people's XL and XLT's traction control systems handle situations like that?? Besides luxury wise, does anyone wish they would have upgraded to the 4A? Thank you! I love this forum!
