4x4 fuel drain, solutions?
Winter here is just getting to its "fun" part (you know, the slush, freezing rain, ice, all dat snow stuffs) I'm occasionally using 4x4 on the drive home. Now I have noticed this, combined with OD lockout drains fuel about 2 mpg more than normal. Does anyone have an idea to minimize the effects of 4x4 use? I was thinking of getting manual locking hubs for better weather so the drive train in the front doesn't get dragged along by the wheels on turns.
