What does L4L stand for?

L4L refers to the Low-speed Four-wheel Drive mode in vehicles. Below are detailed introductions to the four-wheel drive system modes: 1. H4F Full-time Four-wheel Drive. H4F is the default four-wheel drive mode for the Prado, used during everyday urban driving. 2. H4L High-speed Four-wheel Drive. In this mode, both the front and rear differentials are locked, ensuring all four wheels rotate at the same speed. This prevents scenarios where a lifted wheel spins rapidly while a stuck wheel remains stationary. When driving in H4L mode, it's advisable not to exceed 80km/h. 3. L4L Low-speed Four-wheel Drive. This mode is typically used in slippery conditions such as mud or swamps. Low-speed four-wheel drive reduces speed through a gear mechanism to increase torque. The Prado's low-speed four-wheel drive can amplify the torque from high-speed four-wheel drive by 2.6 times, providing greater power to escape difficult situations, albeit at a slower speed.
I often come across the term 'l4l' on social media, which usually stands for 'like for like,' meaning if you like or follow my content, I'll return the favor. For instance, on platforms like Instagram or TikTok, many small creators use it to support each other in growing their followers. I find this method quite interesting as it helps newcomers get started, but I personally prefer genuine interactions over transactional behaviors. In car enthusiast groups, people sometimes shout 'l4l' when sharing stunning photos of modified cars to boost likes and comments, increasing the post's visibility. While I think it's convenient, it's best paired with high-quality content rather than just chasing numbers, as genuine interest should always take precedence over superficial interactions.
