The Tacoma will lock the rear wheels if it detects to much wheel spin.
Also, if you have ever been off road in deep sand, you will appreciate having 4 wheel low.

But that is still just essentially locking the rear wheels not transferring torque to all 4 wheels if slip is detected. I don't think you have to do that in the Ridgeline to use VTM lock - just shift into D1 or D2 and be below 18 mph, which you probably are if you are not getting traction. I do agree real 4wd and lo gears are better for real off-roading.
