Hold the traction control button down for 10 seconds ... It disables the system ... Or just pull the fuse

It does not fully disable the system, at least not on 2013's. It may say it's off, just like it does in 4lo, but it's not.

Yeah, I've heard that ... I haven't had a chance to try it out myself, but I've heard pulling the ABS fuse does the trick

For 2012 and newer you can't shut it down 100%. The fuse pull might be the way to go.

I only do what the majority of the 4 voices in my head tell me to. In most cases, I ignore two of them because one doesn't speak English, and I suspect the other is talking to someone else.
