    4-motion or 4-motion with 1Y4 locking rear diff - what I've learned

    T6.1 rear diff & hill-descent assist?

    Looking at pulling the trigger on a newer T6.1 with 4-motion AND rear Diff lock. Any idea why some models have the rear diff lock, but not always the downhill assist (photos)? Also, the 199 vs 204hp engines... the 204 seems more fuel efficient, but I found some good deals on the 199. Any...
