I drive in 2WD all time time off road. I only put it in 4X4 when I need it. A couple of years ago I was with a bunch of jeeps on some back roads and trails. We had been at it for a couple of hours and I came to a slight incline that had some exposed tree roots. Half way up I started spinning on a couple of roots and could not get up. I stopped and got out and turned the front hubs into the locked position. At that point a couple of guys came up and ased what is wrong. I said nothing, I am just putting it into 4 wheel drive. They just stood there kind of looking dumb that I had gone that far with out being in 4 wheel. Of course they were in 4 wheel with lockers and aired down. I kind of deflated them but they also learned that you do not need all that fancy stuff to get into some nice places.
