Did you even read the thread?
Or are you implying that the US car industry is still stuck in the 50s?

I read a lot of it. Just because someone said something there doesn't make that true. These forums are good, but inaccurate information is everywhere. If I'm wrong, list the American manufacturers (GM, Ford, Chrysler) who manufacture vehicles that are sold in the U.S. that:
-Has a center differential and called 4WD
-Has no center differential and called AWD
-Is called AWD and has multiple gear ratios in the transfer case
-Is called AWD and one axle can be disengaged
Or anything else that goes against what I said, that can be linked to the manufacturers web site, a review, etc., but not a thread that may or may not be accurate.

I'll gladly admit if I'm wrong, just link to facts

So its the later then

It's more like having different names for T-tops and sunroofs or sedans and coupes. We've got AWD and we've got 4WD, they just don't mean the same thing here. And not to start a pointless argument, but the first AWD vehicle was the 1980 AMC Eagle... so we would be "stuck in the 80s", if anything

You mean the first car to be built and sold in the US with an AWD badge it on was the AMC Eagle
