    When using H4 in the snow & I park the Runner. Should I leave it on H4 or should it be changed back to H2?

    Welcome to the forum, i don’t think it will hurt anything to leave it engaged.

    If you're worried about it hurting it to stay in H4 when parked, there no need... It won't hurt it. However, I usually shift back into H2 before I park so I don't forget next time I hop in and start out on my next adventure. But if I forget it's no big deal.

    I usually always go back to 2wd when parking; otherwise I’ll probably forget that I left it in 4hi. Especially if parked for the night.
