| | They are often not rugged enough for the harsh conditions, and with their typically larger size they are too wide to fit on the existing wheel tracks created by previous cars (so the driver ends up attempting to carve out his or her own track). | | | This is commonly referred to as driving a Toorak Tractor. | | | Four-wheel drive (4WD or 4x4 for short) was the original term, often used to describe truck-like vehicles that required the driver to manually switch between a two wheel drive mode for streets and a four-wheel drive mode for low traction conditions such as ice, mud, or loose gravel. |

| | Halfbakery: Fluid Coupling Four Wheel Drive |
| | Buick used a similar concept, but instead used a "staged" principle whereby different pitched vanes took over drive of the vehicle at various speeds (the Dynaflow). | | | This idea was actually inspired by the Jeep Grand Cherokee system which uses gerotor pumps to transmit torque. | | | These same basic units (a fluid coupling, no stator) were used in some Chrysler cars of the late 1940's (Fluid Drive) backed by a two speed manual gearbox (some had provisions to shift on their own). |

It shows a young man bouncing through ditches and racing jets down runways, a rooster’s tail of sand and mud shooting immodestly out the back of his Pathfinder. | | | While the interiors often are designed by people with their minds in the boardroom, the engineers who design the drive trains are thinking about high water, turning radius, and exit angle. |
