That's good to hear regarding reliability, I've never owned one. I'm just thinking from a personal maintenance standpoint...the transfer case, extra diff, and front axles are bound to complicate things. Since we get very little snow and ice here I doubt I would miss it. At least I know that it shouldn't sway me if a car I'm looking at has it in the future.
