I have never wheeled a TT4 truck but I love BTM'ing my H1. BTM'ing an older model truck (pre TT4) with the 4:1 torque biased differentials is incredibly easy and effective.

X2 on going to Moab.

I love my TT4 Truck but it always dosent hurt to learn to BTM. From my "current" experiance i think that TT4 is better than BTM. But i have not seen what the real differences are. Hope to see you guys in April!

Good luck Trevon. If you do end up getting it in Feb., any chance you can get to & meet us in Moab in April?

always though that btm was superior simply because the driver controls when it works and doesn't work -- and the driver can anticipate an obstacles instead of the tt4 kicking on (or off) halfway through. It's obviously better on later model trucks but still kinda poopy without the high bias diffs.

I would say that most of the comparisons I have heard follow Ron's thoughts on this. Since I haven't really wheeled a TT4 truck ( except Mike's once ) I can't really say I have the experience to say. I do know that I prefer to BTM than use lockers.

I wheeled the Alpha OT numerous times and it almost took the fun out of wheeling. Did Moab in it once and decided never again.

Just 1 question, Did you sell you Open top? Is that the reason why you sold it if you did?
Id think Id like an Alpha just do to comfort and i kinda would agree, that i probably wouldnt wheel it

Just sold the OT. Several reasons really. One it had just turned 40K miles on it. They tend to start dropping in value pretty quickly after that. I had also made a very good buy on that truck so I sold it while I could still put some nice walking around money in my pocket. Maybe in the next few months I can tell of my other motivation, if not I will buy another Alpha with low miles on it. Wheeling it with the lockers on made most stuff too easy. Almost felt detached from the wheeling. I could have BTM'd the Alpha but I have other trucks for that. No point beating up a $120K truck wheeling when I have other trucks for that purpose.
