    Researching Renegades.

    Yeah, I get flamed at every forum I go to. I've gotten used to it. I'll admit, though, I couldn't have said it better myself. Now, back on topic..... I did find ONE Renegade w/lightbar and everything else. It fits the budget and it's a CommandTrac. It's even an 06 :-) It also...

    Ok now even -I- am a little confused. So with SelecTrac, there is part time and full time 4wd. The PART TIME 4WD is to be used only for offroading. The FULL TIME 4WD (or AWD), can be used anytime, anywhere, EXCEPT offroading, and when there is a 100% difference in traction between the...

    I get it.... Don't go offroading with SelecTrac in part time 4WD, but then also don't expect TRUE 4WD in the snow. Beleive me, the most offroading my girl will ever be doing is navigating some very tricky construction areas between home and work. As for me, I will rarely-if-ever be...

    Straight from Wikipedia, this is why I think SelecTrac is inefficient: The down side of 4WD Hi Full-Time is that, due to the open differential between front and rear drive lines, at times the drive train will only deliver power to the front or the rear e.g. when the front of the vehicle has...

    Understood. The thing I am most highly concerned with is driving in the snow. On my 02 Ranger, I have 2H, 4H, and 4L. 4H is for snow and 4L rarely gets used. For the Liberty, it sounds like Full Time 4WD is used for snow and Part Time is for offroad use.

    I understand what you are saying and I shall heed your advice. Now, the hard part is actually FINDING one with SelecTrac. I've read up on both t-cases on wiki so I'm familiar with them.

    So my assumption was correct: The light bar is essentially an option. Well, I prefer that option and so does my girfriend so it looks like I'll be searching for that equipped. Worst case scenario, I'll install one. Cannot be that difficult. Flat hoods, eh? I'll have to check that out in...

    Researching Renegades.

    Hi all. First time poster here. I'm RJ and I'm researching the Renegade trim level because I'm planning on buying one for my g/f at the end of the summer. She had one before and it had to be an 06 because it was bought BRAND NEW off the dealer lot and my research says the Renegade trim...
