I probably should have asked this before I ordered my new Dak. I looked at
two transfer cases available on the Dakota. The standard transfer case is
the NV233, which is your traditional floor mounted case and gives you the
option of 2wd hi, 4hi, or 4lo. The optional NV244, which gives a choice of
full time 4wd, 4hi, or 4lo. It is actuated by an electronic knob in the
dash. I went for the NV233 for a several reasons.
It seems like a simple mechanism which will be less prone to failure. I'm
used to having the floor mounted stick to shift in and out of 4wd. I didn't
want full-time 4wd - because of increased wear on the 4wd system and
increased drag on the driveline decreasing performance and fuel economy. And
you have to pay a few hundred bucks extra for the NV244.
I'm curious what other folks think.
