    I noticed on the FX4 models, you can downshift from "D" to "S". Is the "S" only on the FX4 ? I haven't been able to find a pic of the shifter without the Trail Mode button on the 4WD selector (which would indicate an FX4 model).

    The "S" has two modes. Just move to "S" and it is in Sport mode, which changes the shift points, and if you use the +/- and it becomes select shift where you control the shifting. You can treat it like a manual.

    You can also lock out gears, and turn it into say a 6 speed
