Neptune ◊ 2012-05-21 04:10	Has conventional four-wheel drive with two-speed dual range New Process Gear 205 transfer gearbox and permanent 50/50 front-to-rear torque split. Permanent four-wheel drive had been discontinued due to the 1979 energy crisis. Shift-on-the-move four-wheel drive would be introduced for the 1981 model year to take the place of permanent four-wheel drive.
