Hi Guys,

As I was driving home tonight I wondered what the real differences are between VSC being Off or On. I tried a couple of experiments but I was in traffic so I could no dot much. Do most of you drive with VSC OFF or ON? You would think when driving in sunny dry weather - VSC OFF. Then, when it is raining or slippery on the streets - VSC ON. Any comments? Thanks.

I ALWAYS keep it on unless I know that I WANT to burn out, go sideways, etc. There is always a potential while driving to hit a slick of oil, gravel, etc. and if I have my VSC off then I won't have it when I most need it; an unexpected loss of control. I really think it is dumb to override such a usefull tool when you are not driving aggressively... it only takes a second to turn it off.

I leave it on most of the time. Only turn if off when I want to test 0-60 and 1/4 mile.
