The G80 has a terrible reputation due to lots of seizing and breakage.

There is also a type that sends 100% power to both wheels but allows the outside wheel in a turn to freewheel faster than the driveshaft requires. I've always thought it's a good idea but just recently read about it on a truck forum.

You're probably getting it whether you want it or not, and unlike ABS/traction control/stability control, you probably won't be able to disable it with a button.
