Actually it really depends on the road surface, and if your mostly going straight and not doing hard turns. The longest time we've driven is about 1 hour or so in 4wd Hi with the snow tires up in Connecticut coming home from purchasing another car, it was snowing, and the road had maybe half an inch or so of accumulating snow and slush, and the one lane we went in for a little while wasnt plowed at all with maybe 2" or something like that with snow, this was doing maybe 50-60mph on the highway.
And it wasnt just once, multiple times its been used when driving on the highway when they didnt start plowing yet, or theres some accumulation, at speeds 40+.
The main thing is, i think in the book it says you can engage the 4wd at speed or something like that, that is what you dont want to do, disengaging at speed is ok, but i dont see it being good if you engage 4wd at lets say 20mph, im usually going very low speed 5mph or engage it at a stoplight/stopsign.
