You fellows out there with diesel pickups had better find 4wd when the roads are slick. All brands are more front end heavy. I always run mine in 4wd when it is slick. As for not feeling it before it is too late. That is BS. The reason so many 4wd vehicles are in the ditch is the wing nut behind the wheel.

Never did have the whole body.
