Message:
How fast is a 5.2 4x4? Is it a lot slower than a 4x2 5.2 liter? I'm considering buying a 4x4 automtic but I don't want it to be a slug off the line. Would a 4x4 get smoked off the line by a 4x2 or is the difference not even that much more notcieable. An answer would help me out a lot, Thanks!

If your wanting off the line power and a 4x4 get a QC 5.9L with the full time 4wd option.

Or get a RC or CC 4.7L 5spd full time 4wd, if you get the part time 4wd you will be leaving it into 2wd and you won't get all it's potential

to answer your question unless you can hook up (ie slicks) a full time 4wd will have the advantage up to about 20mph and then your done the 2wd is much lighter and weight is never going to help you in a race unless your talking about wight distribution, then that's a whole other story

and get the 3.92's
