Full-time vs part-time 4X4
Am I understanding correctly that "full time 4X4" allow some slip between
the front and rear axles, making it suitable for use on dry pavement (or
more realisticaly, driving when on a road with icy patches), whereas "part
time 4X4" locks the axles together, making it suitable only for mud, snow,
or similarly loose/slick surfaces?
