Tested my 2009 H3T - I have no need to hold the button in. one press (normal speed) and traction is turned off (Light on dash appears as well as "TRACTION OFF" or something like that on DIC).
I even tested this morning at 70mph. Turns off and on without holding the botton

Re: Traction Control Button
in the 06 manual it says hold for 5-6 seconds I believe. I think it says they did this so people wouldnt inadvertantly hit the button at highway speeds when youd most likely need the system. the stability/traction control system on these trucks works incredibly well. Id dare say i dont think they can hydroplane with it on. especially with 35" mud tires. I hit a spot of road covered with 6-8 inches of water going 50mph one night driving through a major t-storm and didnt even momentarily loose control. you could hear the braking system going crazy but it tracked straight and true to the other side. It sold me.
