Thanks Hummie2!
I was at a Hummer Happening last weekend, put on by Rod Hall. We were at the trials course, where we were purposely put into a difficult traction situation where we had only two wheels with traction. Passenger front and Driver rear.
We were told to spin the wheels until the traction control came on and pulled us up. It was so scary, especially after what I had just been through.
It was VERY difficult for me to do. I wanted so bad to BTM my way through the obstacle. But sure enough it worked. It took a little bit longer than I would have liked for it to engage. It did, and I cleared the obstacle.
So, it think in soft dirt or loose gravel/rock it is an invaluable system. On slickrock, which grips like sandpaper, any kind of spin is a diff killer
