Re: highway speed in full time 4X4?
 

I'm not sure where you are going with this, but my wife drives her AWD Astro
at 80+ mph on the interstate.

I run up in the 60 mph's using part time 4x4 depending on conditions.

Let me be more specific-

If I'm driving my Jeep Liberty on the interstate in bad weather (i.e.
drizzle near freezing, light snow, patchy snow), is it safe to use "full
time 4X4" at speeds of 55-75? The manual says I can safely ---- in or out
of 4wd at up to 55 mph, but makes no mention of a top speed, automatic
disengage speed, or other limit on 4X4 at highway speed.

55-75+ mph should be no problem in your Libby.
