Four Wheel Drive Mobility of Light Trucks

Anticipating that population growth during the next decade will continue to spread into suburban areas strengthens the belief that there will be an increasing need for a significant portion of that population to rely on personal and commercial transportation to maintain a high level of mobility.

The now recognized trend toward lighter fuel efficient vehicles mandates that such an automotive market be served by improving on-road mobility of such vehicles particularly during construction periods and/or in inclement weather.

This paper will discuss one method of achieving that mobility.
