[QUOTE="dlbb, post: 1156943, member: 23847"] wanna say thank you to all who made reviews of the terrain modes. we went out yesterday to a few trails near helendale, ca and cal city. our testing lead to me setting up the raptor the same as i did with my 14 lariat. only difference is sport mode and power, and shocks. first test was on a nice long dirt road, hard pack with soft spots and small hills. tried baja mode, then stopped and did my set up from reading this and experience. sport mode, 4a. very stable and predictable. "this is like a paved road to this thing" was my buddies opinion. second test was on some trails following some quads and a dirt bike. again trying baja mode first. really not impressed with the terrain management. so sport mode, traction button held for 5 sec, 4h. top 4 gears locked out. really fun again. after an hr we rode up to cal city. took a right off pavement and switched to sport mode. 4h, traction held for 5 sec, top 4 locked out. rode the trails and dirt roads for almost 2 hrs. 30 min switch drivers. we were both doing 20-50mph having a blast. when we realized we it was almost 4pm we hit the "go home" button on the nav. at no point did i feel the need to air down. we both found a rut/wash a lil to fast. shocks are awesome lol. our conclusion is the terrain modes are not needed or to unpredictable. some where along the way my buddy said he would rather have had an armored raptor instead of the humvee he spent a few years in. we had a blast honoring Memorial day weekend, while breaking in the truck. edit. starting miles was 475, now at 950? truck was gonna perform or break. sitting in the parking lot dirty, still flying a 3x5. but no damage at all.
