4wd the whole way, I only did see one sander on the highway and of the 7 crashes I saw 6 were 4x4s. Watched a guy in front of me hit a meridian sideways and by the way his wheels were spinning, he hadnt locked his hubs, woops lessoned learned.
One question I have is how long before I dont have the wipers going turning a corner?

Yes it does and I kinda like not getting out to lock the hubs like my last vehicle(F250).

umm.. LSD?
very nice looking deli.. I think the white ones are the nicest looking. Enjoy the snow, they handle like a dream when the roads turn bad, just leave lots of room to brake as they are heavy and slide for a year when it is slippery.

That happens to me too, but only on left turns! I also got my van from Five Star. I think they must be screwing up the linkage or something during thier pre-sale service since you are having the same problem. I was going to call Jack and complain, but it seems to have worked itself out. Strange thing though--I drove my wife's LHD subaru yesterday and it seems to have developed a similiar problem--only on right turns! Frankly, I'm stumped! Maybe too much LSD!
