Greetings! Ford Explorer sells either with permanent 4x4 (which has low and high extra gear for real sticky situation) and AWD. Why any one will buy AWD When permanent 4x4 is available? I have AWD Ford five hundred and 4x2 ST. Only thing I can think is AWD is cheaper to make than 4x4 permanent.
According to dealer 4x4 permanent can be driven an ordinary pavement as a RWD SUV. When the SUV feels the need it gets traction on front wheels. (This just opposite my AWD Ford 500 - where the car drives like FWD and when needed applies traction to rear Wheel)
Please explain me the reasons? With thanks.
