A major difference between four-wheel drive vehicles and all-wheel drive vehicles is that you need to manually shift the four-wheel drive vehicle into four-wheel drive mode. You can shift into four-wheel drive mode when it is snowy or when you are driving on rough terrain.

As your tires get older, the tread wears, and when that happens, the tires should be replaced immediately. How do you know if that's the case?

Tire Tests Both Driving And While Parked

You can usually tell if your vehicle has tires with tread going bad by either wearing unevenly, or going completely bald. Here are a few things you can notice either while driving or parked:
