Lol, you must like your rims huh? I see most of the pics seem to center in on the rims.

Not sure if you purposely tried to blank out your license plate, but if you did, you missed a couple pics.

Looks good, I'd want to get an SUV but they're too expensive for me right now.

Body kit and a lowering on a 4wd SUV? Jesus christ...

2wd = lower.
4wd = lift that bitch up.

Common sense..

but this one isn't 4wd, its AWD, there's a difference. Namely, AWD has a center diff and is ment to be engaged on dry pavement, unlike 4WD, which has no center diff, so when it's engaged the axles are locked together, resulting in binding (on dry pavement), which leads to accelerated tire wear and increased drivetrain stress (wear). It's kinda like if you lock the spider gears in your axle diff.(s), but usually less severe. AWD is actually better for on-road than off.
Besides, most people don't drive off-road much, if at all (unless you live in a rural area), and lifted trucks with knobby tires ride like sh!t on the road.

very nice.

very nice X2
I'm not a big fan of two-tone either and those tires do look kinda small right now. It'll probably look much better when it's lowered and kitted

i personally love the two tone and rims. the only the that bugs me is the whole lowering thing. i also have a slt+ and almost every weekend that AWD knob gets turned to 4HI, and if im lucky enough 4LO. but then again i am a redneck. heres some picks from a past weekend.



got some mud on my camera lens.

shes been muddier.

regardless of what she chooses to do you are still incorrect, 4wd does not necessarily mean that the differential is locked. there are many types of ways to run the differentials; open, limited slip (commonly called posi), and a variety of lockers.

just because vehicles are 4wd does not mean that they are meant to be used only in off-road/extreme driving instances, hell dodge made many full time 4wd vehicles in the 70's, they could be your first "AWD" vehicles.

most AWD vehicles also are driven on high performance tires designed for excellent on road traction, just like anything else you can adjust the handling of your vehicle for different types of driving so making a statement that AWD is better for on-road than off is recockulous; if anything it should be AWD is generally better for all types of driving.

to the OP, nice D, i thinkit would look a little better all the darker gray but still ok as the 2-tone (minus the door moulding)
