I use 4low fairly rarely. On my Power Wagon, the 5.88 gears meant I didn't need to and my 4X4 trucks since have had enough grip and torque to do the job easily.
Yeah, I don't use 4Lo often, but, when I need it.... it's nice to have it. My current truck has 4.56 gears, and 33" tires, so it is already 'over-geared' a bit, but, when I am maneuvering about 12000 lbs of trailer around in my yard, I liked using it, as I was less likely to spin tires/tear up the yard.
I'll tell ya, the 8.0 doesn't NEED the right tires to push the house off the foundation in 4 Low.
