Here at Fred Beans Ford of Doylestown, we are often asked the question, "Should I buy a four-wheel-drive vehicle or all-wheel-drive?" The answer to this question is many vehicle manufacturers use the terms interchangeably leading to a little confusion about what the difference really is.
The all-wheel-drive vehicle uses a front, rear, and central differential to power all four wheels, while four-wheel-drive is a drivetrain at the front and rear to power all four wheels. In Doylestown, it is always a good idea to consider either AWD or 4WD vehicles when the driver is looking for a higher level of grip when towing or simply driving in difficult conditions. The AWD system has become commonplace on many crossover vehicles and 4WD is a more popular choice for trucks which benefit from the increased acceleration and grip available.
If you wish to learn more about the possibilities on offer with AWD and 4WD stop by our showroom and discuss the available options with our friendly sales staff.
