When coupled with a set of good winter tires, these vehicles can perform even better on snow and ice.

Can a 4HI wheel spin a 4low wheel?
If your in 4hi or 4low you will only have one front tire that recieves power. The factory limited slip in the rear is not like a “locker” and will not transmit power equally to both rear tires. If one tire starts to slip it transmits power to the other wheel. I recomend plowing in 4low to save stress on your transmission.
