Work Trucks For Sale: 4x4 Trucks Vs. AWD Vehicles
So you’ve been hearing a lot about four wheel drive trucks, AWD vehicles, and 4x4; what’s the difference?
Firstly, “four wheel drive” and 4x4 mean the same thing. They are synonymous terms used interchangeably. AWD is the same thing, in once sense; all four wheels are engaged and receiving power simultaneously. Here’s the main difference: AWD vehicles always use all-wheel-drive. There is no option---the car is made to always engage all four wheels.
The 4x4 trucks sold at our commercial truck dealers come with built-in options. You can drive around on a clear day with two wheel drive (and in fact, you should only use two wheel drive in dry, non-slippery situations), and when you need more traction, you can manually turn on 4x4 driving.
All wheel drive (AWD) vehicles function well in wet or dry circumstances because the engine uses electronics to monitor power distributed to each wheel. If it’s dry outside, your AWD car will regulate the power given to each wheel so you can make natural turns without putting stress on the drivetrain. If you encounter an unexpected slippery turn, though, the wheels will respond accordingly.
4x4 vehicles are usually larger, truck-based cars, like our commercial trucks for sale in Milwaukie. A vehicle of that size would be inefficient in the AWD format; however, you need the 4x4 capability to tow and carry large payloads in gravel, mud, snow, or ice.
