not certain if your intention here is to say "if you switch out the Limited's 20-inch wheels for the Trail's 17-inch"... if that's
not your intent, well, then now you know. beyond that, the Trail has better approach/departure angles, rear locker, multi-terrain & crawl modes, and KDSS option. Limited has highly flexible and forgiving Torsen center diff.

when the paved road is very wet or just wet ( not raining ) CAN I SHIFT TO 4 HI when driving long distance on high speed (50-80mph )?
when the paved road is packed with hard snow CAN I SHIFT TO 4HI when driving long distance on high speed (50-80MPH)?
Also the same what if the road is raining wet and covered with fresh deep snow ?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH , I HOPE PROFESSIONALS ON THE FORUM CAN HELP ME STRAIGHT MY MIND OUT !
