4wd is designed for offroad, where the front tires turn slightly faster than
the rears. Definitely not for use on dry pavement, where you'd wear out your
transfer case extraordinarily fast. AWD on the other hand, is designed for
onroad use, where all the tires turn at the same speed, and a front/rear
differential is included.
