Hill climbs suck when you can't defeat stability control

[QUOTE="poodlemaster, post: 1151787, member: 23578"] So, I finally got my 17' Raptor to offroad park in Pa, and will say it was a great time except for fairly steep hill climb. The power cuts out continuously with pedal to the floor when bouncing over rocks and bumps, which led to having to actually stop mid hill and reverse back down after my father in law made up easily in his 11 f150 V6. I realized that I was in 4H Normal, so I changed to Mud/Sand. Same thing. Tried again in rock crawl: same thing. Then last ditch effort tried Baja mode: same thing. Traction control off every time. So it seems to be a major flaw of the 17 Raptor that stability control can't be turned off, which is BS for an offroad vehicle. Maybe this is Ford trying to protect the HO 3.5l or the new 10-speed, not sure. Is this defeatable with a tuner? If not, I'm going to need a new offroad vehicle. Not bashing the raptor, it tore up the mud pits all day and was fun as hell on the trails. [/QUOTE]
