How do you use 4-wheel drive on a Toyota Tacoma?

My wife and I just bought a new truck and are dying to use the four-wheel drive for some offroading adventures. The only problem is neither of us know how to get started. How do you turn on the 4WD setting on a Tacoma?

Enabling four-wheel drive is an excellent way to keep control of your vehicle in difficult situations. To use four-wheel drive on a
Toyota Tacoma
, turn the control knob to the 4WD setting. Once you do, the 4WD indicator light should come on.
You can change your drive settings while on the road if you are driving below 50 miles per hour. However, to select the 4WD low setting, you will need to stop completely.
Now that you know how to enable four-wheel drive on your Tacoma, you and your wife can enjoy the open road and maintain full control. But before you head out, go to
