You press them when you want to shift between modes.Generally speaking, when do you press the buttons corresponding to these various drive modes?
You only need to shift to Neutral for 4-Low. You can shift on the fly with 4-Auto and 4-HiWhen I need to switch modes. (After shifting to neutral)
Typically when I hit bad snow, or backing my boat uphill through grass are the 2 common times for me
Yep. You can shift at 70mph to 4-hi. The truck does the work for you. Every other month I’ll test 4-hi just to keep the transfer case working if I don’t get a hard rain to drive in.You only need to shift to Neutral for 4-Low. You can shift on the fly with 4-Auto and 4-Hi

I’m just saying the truck has a safety net and safely engages the gears when it deems is ok. I’ll engage it in the rain at 50 mph with no sounds or signs of stress.Please don't shift into 4-hi going 70mph.
4-Auto sure, not 4-hi at those speeds.
And if you have 3.92 gears, don’t forget to tank up at the top of the hill.4 low when doing anything but driving downhill with 3.21 gears.
