I was reading our latest issue of Land Rover Lifestyle Magazine tonight (a great magazine by the way - I get tons of car magazines, and this is the only one my wife allows on the living room coffee table - www.lrlmag.com ), and there was a very interesting article on the Terrain Response System and its development/evolution.
One of the most interesting comments was around some drivers using the grass/gravel/snow mode for normal driving which has given them an extra 3-5 mpg better gas mileage due to the less sensitive throttle and different shift maps.
Does anyone do this? If so, have you seen similar results? How about potential issues? I don't believe it changes anything that you have to worry about long term (e.g. it doesn't permanently lock the center diff), but I'd be interested in people's thoughts/experiences.
