New Ranger

I curretly have a 2008 Ranger 4x2 with a 3.0 L engine which is a great truck. I live in snow country and am looking about trading it in for a 4x4. When I go to the Ford web site and price a 2010 model it seems that the only rear end that is available in a "non-limited slip". I'm not sure what this really means but I hope that Ford is still making the Ranger with a limited slip rear end. If anyone knows about this I would appreciate some input. The trucks that I've owned including my current Ranger have always had the limited slip. I'd really like to hear what the thinking is on this.

Thanks Flyguy2

I believe that 2010 is the first year that Rangers have an electronic traction control system (they call it "AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control"). Ford probably believes this takes the place of a LS diff. I don't enough about it to be able to judge...
