4 wheel drive

I have an 06 4 wheel drive f150 and i live in the mountains. I live in a house that has a pretty steep driveway and requires puting my truck in 4wheel drive to get up becasue of its size. Will using 4wheel drive on steep inclines put alot of stress on my truck, especially using it almost every day?

As long as it is a Ford, then No Problem.

BTW, it sounds like a Mans House. :-)

Dude thats what you bought a 4 wheel drive for USE IT. Your not gonna break your truck by using it. I submerge my jeep in water up past the door frame, climb 45 degree hill climbs, and bounce the t-case mount/skidplate off of rocks almost every weekend and so far have had few problems w/ it. Your truck will be fine
