Anyway, the 08's have the ability in 2wd to turn off VSC in A-LSD mode, the 07's could not do that. 08's can use A-LSD with or with out VSC.
In 4WD, Toyota has added VSC as normal mode in 4hi and Lo. This was a gripe that CR had, no VSC in 4WD.
So, in normal mode it appears that you have VSC and A-TRAC working, turn off VSC and it looks like you are also turning off A-TRAC, so you have nothing.
I don't like the idea of losing A-TRAC with VSC off, I can't imagine to many times I would not like to have some sort of LS operating.
I warn you the chart is strange as it shows that the VSC off light is on when VSC is working, but the text is clear.

VSC is still off when in 4WD. Even on the 08 models. No change there.
