Torque converter autos are usually much more capable at handling launches. PDK shift speed is great, but modern planetary ZF derivatives shift very quickly.
Only reasons to not do it is tax collectors going after you for the above publicly stated admission of tax evasion, or local police targeting you for the out of state plates.
If you can deal with those two contingencies, you'll save some money for sure.
That wasn't the question lol. OEM is good, great aftermarket is better. Tuscany isn't that, but you can't discount how much the aftermarket helps move the industry forward. As I'm sure you know, a surprising amount is sourced from suppliers, which are often market leading aftermarket...
I disagree. The Gen 3 is the first instance of a serious departure in chassis, and they kept the powertrain from the Gen 2 until the TRX came out. The body panels and suspension components have all been bolt on Raptor to F150, except for the Gen 3's new link setup. They've done some awesome...
Always to flip. Its a pickup truck based on a $30k platform, not a purpose built super car. People sure love these things but its really gotten out of hand.
On my '20 there was a separate HSWM that went behind the dash, and has a button on the touch screen. IIRC, 21+ uses the SECM for heating control, and comes with a physical button. Definitely all parts you can install, add pins to or flash after the fact, but integration will be interesting.
The parts are going to be much more than that bought from a large supplier at a discount. Ford can possibly source them for that, but we will see what it takes to get it up and running.
Putting a Gen 2 wheel on an F150 was nearly $500 after the wheel and harness. For heated to non-heated, you'd need a new wheel and clock spring, as well as temperature control modules, etc.
If Ford was smart, they'd lay the ground work with the proper wiring, clockspring and heating elements...
A new Lariat Powerboost is $75k lol, not exactly a low trim... For a while, the lariat was the only option without a god awful interior, but black package platinums changed that.
Long story short, 1/2 tons from Ford are god awful expensive these days, and it usually isn't price that sways...
