Do you mostly drive in 2H or 4H?

recommended top speed for 4H in snow?

Whatever speed allows you to keep it on the road and stop safely when you need to. 4H will shift through the gearbox the same as 2H, so driving at a "safe & prudent" speed for conditions is what you need to worry about, not "top speed".

2H always on road, 4H in snow on road (just use GOAT mode) and I even use 2H off road until i get to an obstacle that warrants it and shift to appropriate 4 wheel mode.

Yes. Traction control.

I've had three four wheel drive vehicles before my Bronco and only used 4H to get over the mountains in the winter. I assume since you asked that question, you have as much experience as I do off road (none, lol). I went to the Vegas Off Rodeo this past weekend and it was awesome. A lot of newbies there like me. We learned a lot about off roading, but even more about the Bronco's capabilities and how to use them. I highly recommend you go if you can, even if you aren't really interested in taking her off road.

4A is great for the gravel roads I live on. Smooths the bumps and washboard.

I wonder how many gearboxes are gonna go up in smoke in the next couple years.

This post needs one of those captchas attached to it.

Probably quite a few. There's been an awful lot of car owners who have up and decided they need 4x4 SUVs the past few years despite not even knowing what 4WD is, and the Bronco seems to have been particularly affected.

We can thank Instagram for that.

Cool. Wasn't sure if some of my other 4x4's had recommended under 60? I have a personal policy to always try to go at least the speed limit no matter the conditions, which means sometimes going 70 in the snow.

Speed limiter kicks in at 101 MPH, that's max for 4x4 high.

Been driving Bronco for about a week or so, and usually drive in 2H. But tried 4H and didn't really notice much of a difference (dry normal conditions). Curious if most are driving normally with 4 wheel, or two wheel?

you bought the wrong vehicle

Ouch.

Just like the tie rod ends, and the valves in the 2.7 liter engine.
