Part-time 4wd towable?

I understand the 4wd will be part-time. I wonder if it will have a neutral position on transfer case that will let it be towable. If it does, I might buy another Ranger, if not forget it. Dave

The selector shown in the pictures I've seen has a button labeled TM, to me that seems like Tow Mode but I could be wrong.

I think the TM is Trail Management.

After looking again I think that the TM button is not the trail management, on the small cluster of buttons ahead of the 4x4 selector there is what is clearly a hill decent button and below that looks to me to be the trail control button.
