I was reading in some Consumer Buying Guide that AWD has been discontinued in the 2005 models. Does anyone know why? I have it in my 2003 XLT and it has performed flawlessly in deep soft sand at Cape Hatteras and in fairly deep snow the last two winters. I'm just wondering if Ford discovered something inherently wrong with the engineering or that it was not as big a marketing plus as they thought it would be?
