When the back tires have traction but the front tires want to spin, I would like for the system to transfer power to where it makes sense. Almost like Anti-Lock brakes, but more of an Anti-Spin Management System.
There are many times when I find myself in a situation (climbing an off-camber trail) where my back tires have plenty for grab (weight shifting back on a climb) but my front tires are struggling for traction. Sometimes, this can be in a spot where I'm more concerned about my front tires directing than I am about pulling. If they begin to spin, they can become worthless in terms of directing my path of travel. Even in a hard turn, if they spin, the front of the vehicle can "walk" in the wrong direction.
I think it would be great if the Anti-Spin Management System could sense tire spin and reduce power to that axle. This might need to be one of those cool toggle switches you're planning and it could be engaged only when needed.
The marketing would read, "The New Scout with 'Spin Guard'". We would have to talk with Bill, but maybe, "The New Scout - The Spin Stops Here!" *grin*
