Introduction INTRODUCTION Welcome to Ford Motor Company's world of four-wheel driving! Your new 4WD or AWD vehicle opens up a completely different and challenging world of travel unlike what you have ever experienced with a conventional two-wheel drive vehicle. Now, you'll be able to travel places where roads don't. You'll be able to travel when weather conditions have made roads impassible for two-wheel drive vehicles. Most importantly, you'll be able to travel with the safety, comfort and dependability of a Ford-built vehicle. The steering and handling characteristics of vehicles may vary and you must learn and understand the capabilities and limitations of your 4WD or AWD through experience. Take it slow and easy until you get to know and understand your vehicle and have confidence in your ability to drive it. Your 4WD or AWD vehicle, particularly when loaded, may handle differently than an ordinary passenger car. This is because your vehicle has special design and equipment feature for off-road operation. Familiarize yourself with this vehicle's operating characteristics. Study the "Owner's Guide" and this supplement for specific information and instructions for safe driving under various conditions. 2
