CAROLINA CHAT
I just got done laughing myself till my face hurt, one of the dogs just fell flat, all four legs splayed out when she tried to pee.
We went out and drove the jeep, no issues lol. Only saw one completely stupid person on the road, might have been a 4x2 but they were going 15 mph. Also stopped to help a guy who wasn't quite stuck. He had a 4x4 dakota but it wouldn't go. Turns out his transfer case selector was disconnected. Crawled up underneath it and flipped the selector on the tcase and fixed it. Only problem is it has 2wd or 4L, so he had to crawl to where ever he was going lol. Not sure why they wouldn't make a 4H on all transfer cases.

With these new trucks you have to completely disable traction and stability control. With either of them on tire spin is nearly impossible. And the rear locked only stays locked below 25mph. Spin the tires a little too fast and it unlocks.
All the electronic aids make it a breeze to drive in bad weather, but harder to have fun in.

I like the jeep, it doesn't even have that stupid government mandated tpms. Ford's take on the trucks aren't built for fun is buy a raptor or void your warranty with aftermarket parts.
Pretty much. I looked at getting a Raptor, but it was $14k more. Between that and the terrible fuel mileage I couldn't justify it.
