[/quote] Pardon if I am getting a little OT but I couldn't let this one slip. I followed the links above and the review By Jim Mateja -Chicago Tribune November 21, 1988- read:

Montero`s four-wheel-drive system is a part-time unit that requires you get out and lock the hubs to engage. Those television ads featuring Ford and Chevrolet trucks crossing water and the Ford drivers having to get out and lock hubs is an effective means of promoting the benefits of full-time four- wheel drive.


That's what you get from someone who's car knowledge comes from mail brochures and no time behind the wheel. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

I agree - I shoulda read the whole review, I just looked at the first one that contained the vehicle weight and posted the link, lol! That's actually funny when you think about how he phrases it...almost sounds like he works in the PR department of Ford/Chevy.
