That's bull. It costs no more to "tune up" a 4wd vehicle than a 2wd
vehicle.
But I do agree with the "marine" part of your statement.

Yup, gotta change the fluid in the xfer case. Depending on use, that costs
an additional $20 to $80 per year. Less if you do it yourself. I just let
Jiffy Lube do it.You must not own a 4wd vehicle, as that's one of the
common
arguments I hear against getting one (service costs more). ;-)

Not once have I had to have the transfer cases serviced.

Theres a difference between never having them serviced, and never
HAVING to have them serviced. They need fluid changes as well, even if
you arent using them.

So no, they don't cost any more for repairs.

I dont believe you mentioned ANYTHING about " tuning up " anything.
I'm talking driveline, transmission, transfer case. Yes I HAVE owned a
4WD. But it WASNT a cheesy Toyota Tonka Toy. It was a real 4WD.

Maybe you should get a 3/4 ton Dodge 4x4 then. I've not had any of the
problems you mention in any of mine. So, I stand by my statement.
