Default QUESTION: taking off from the line

in my XLT i obviously don’t have the 4A feature so i was wondering if it would be better to stay in 2WD when doing a 0-60 or should i go to 4H?

No 4A means STAY in 2H. 4H on a dry, smooth road is just aksing for trouble.

i know that some people turn traction control off, do you think that’s recommended?

If your just running in a straight line 4H will be fine, just remember to switch back to 2wd before you make any sharp turns.

THIS^^^^^---4H straight line with traction control off will get you the best time-even 1/4 mile time, turn to 2WD when finished run
