Unless the owner's manual is incorrect, on my '00 F350 I do NOT need to back
up to disengage the hubs when in the auto position.

Jason,
That was the case with older auto hubs (like the ones that were on my 1990
F150), but with the new electronic shift on the fly (ESOF)system this no
longer applies.  My 2000 F350 4x4 uses vacuum to lock and unlock the hubs
while driving - no backing required.  The hub can be manually locked if you
desire (there's 2 positions on the hub: AUTO or LOCK).
