[QUOTE="WhatExit?, post: 1197410, member: 14359"] Without more info I can't say for sure what you did right or wrong in the sand. Did you air down your tires? There's tons of information on this site and online regarding how to wheel in soft sand. It usually involves: 1. Airing down your tires 2. Keeping forward momentum In regard to Off Road mode you may want to do some more reading. per Ford: Mud/Sand For tackling trails and other off-road treks, the mud/sand setting is your best friend. 4 High and the electronic locking differential automatically engage for driving over loose or soft ground, and optimized AdvanceTrac settings help Raptor keep its footing. Steering is set to comfort, which makes it easier to navigate along tight trails and over obstacles. In layman's terms... Mud/Sand The Raptor’s configuration for low traction, high-power situations puts the throttle at a moderately aggressive setting between Normal and Sport. Shifting is similar to Sport where gears are held a little longer, but will shift up if the system detects you can carry on without the power of high-revs. Traction control is essentially off to let the tires freewheel a bit, since you don’t want to lose power just as you’re climbing out of a sand bog, but stability control will still be in place. Steering is set to “comfort,” which provides the most assistance. That means the front wheels will turn harder with less driver input.
