OTOH, there are some disadvantages to a 4x4 - when I tried out a 4x4 3500 
Dodge last summer I discovered the hitch receiver was extremely high off 
the ground and also the ride was a bit harsher than with a 4x2. The entire 
truck was much higher off the ground, come to think of it.

For the last few years, I have carried a "come-along" gadget and a chain in 
my tow vehicle toolkit. I have not used it yet, but I know it is there if I 
need it. I have only been stuck twice in my entire life, both times before 
I started carrying the "get unstuck" kit, and both times somebody was there 
to get me unstuck quickly. Only one of these was with a trailer in tow.

My present truck (a 4x2 dually) has a limited slip differential. I _think_ 
the LSD would help unstick me in most cases(?). Any experts know just what 
the LSD does?
