Shift on the fly does not require the electronic switch. Before 2001 all our
Dakotas were shift on the fly but were lever-operated. I miss my
lever-operated 4WD - I knew when it was in and out because I felt the
engagement. The electronics are more convenient and I imagine are programmed
to not let you do something stupid like attempt 4LO at 40 MPH.
Also note that if you want a manual transmission, fulltime 4WD is not available
with it.
