Re: 1978 full-time 4x4. Is a 700r4 worth it?

I already wrecked posi trac vehicles in my younger days on black ice so I love my open axles and AWD over 2wd posi.

FWIW my brother has a new Toyota 4wd truck and that gets 15 mpg on the highway. I don't know how much we can realistically expect out of a square Chev.
it can be put in in a second. i only go in 4wd when i have to. and ft4wd sucks 99% of the time on dry roads. just my op.
