when it's locked it's equivalent to part-time.

Well, yeah, and when it's unlocked (which is the way I usually drive
it) it ain't. So the truck shouldn't plow in turns.
For street driving in snow I usually leave the center diff unlocked so
that the ABS stays operational - the Lexus LX450 ecu disables the ABS
with the center diff locked.
