Icy roads and full-time 4x4 are amazing together. Literally from a stop on a mild uphill/4wheels on ice- floor it! This thing will spin for a second then start to grab and quickly move fwd. To compare on same said hill(my driveway) my '96 Taco4x4 will spin wildly and very slowly make no progress untill i let off throttle and stop the spinning, then i can feather it fwd.
ABS works great as it should, nothing special there.
XREAS suspension (Limited ED. only) on-road seems to work great as the vehicle handles turns tightly and surely does not have body roll to any excess levels when "swerving" at speed. Too bad this will get yanked when I lift it
Nav. system needs to be "unlocked" to allow use of entry/points while driving (psngr only of course).

Heres some more shots:
third row access is fine for normal adults and hopefully you are just sending your kids back there.
one of the 2nd row slid far forward/normal recline and you can see I am slouching, very comfy sitting position and still have knee room, feet slid forward.
Other shot is of 2nd row slid all the way back/normal recline, it is cramped but ok., great for kids in that pos. I am a normal 5'9" , sz10 guy.
Bling 20" rims??? guess i am stuck with them for now.
Shot of XREAS pressure can on outside framerail (one each side)- its nothing as cumbersome as the KDSS on TE but still may have issues with easy bolt on slider fab. Talked with AllProOffroad this AM and may be hooking up with them for some fit tests.
