Help me out here. My 400 AT has been in mud, and just yesterday a frozen swamp. The swamp was tough, b/c I was breaking through about 3-4 inches of ice as I went along. The front tires were trying to grab onto the ice, which was pretty cool. I purposefully did this to see if all 4 tires were pulling, and indeed they were. When I was stuck in a mud bog over the summer in 2x4, I came to a complete stop, switched to 4x4 and ESP, which, with some body english, pulled me through. Again, I looked down and saw all 4 tires pulling. I've not gotten stuck yet, and in the case of this mud bog, it was a non-existent bottom (mud over the tires). So what is the downside to Honda limited slip? I personally think this "locker" may be over-rated, although I honestly have never used one. Never have had to..... Please enlighten me as to the infatuation with the locker.
