    GEN 2 Off-roading your Gen 2: Driving Modes, Handling Characteristics, and more

    I'm glad yall are finding this useful, and appreciate the positive feedback. Team O'Neil have been rallying a Bronco Raptor lately. Wanted to share this video 1) because it is cool and 2) just in case someone is still skeptical that Baja 4H is faster than Baja 2H. I was expecting a bigger...

    thinking trx as serious rock/dirt replacement? don't do it!!!

    I don't know why anyone thought SRT did any kind of engineering on this truck...all they know how to do is stick a supercharger on big engines, which rednecks have been doing for half a century now. Actually, my new coworker previously worked at Fiat, and he's been telling me how all they can...

    Who would have thought - boot polish

    No pics. I tried when I first did the fix, you couldn't see the damage nor the improvement. It was very noticeable to me, but the camera wouldn't pick up on it.

    An afternoon in….The Muddy Mountain Wilderness

    Do you have Lyme Disease? That's how my left knee felt for years as I was dealing with it. Serrapeptase is a quick fix, made a huge difference for me.

    Texplex Permanently closed

    Well, I can't say I'm surprised, but the best place to run our trucks in North Texas is now permanently closed. Not sure if they were on their 3rd or 4th set of owners, but since opening 4 years ago they've struggled to become profitable. With the newest owners being out of state and management...

    Dust Devil Jamboree Pics

    If this is where I think it is, I've got something better Here's a video of a stock truck getting massive air off of that jump All that said, a stock truck can get 3 foot of air and not fully bottom out. All depends on how you land.

    Who would have thought - boot polish

    There are very few things I don't like about my truck; the extremely fragile interior is top of the list. The unreasonably thin dye and/or paint Ford used means almost every brush against the plastic results in a scuff of the opposite color. In the 5 years I've had my truck, I've tried all...

    Question on 4A vs. 2H

    This is the correct answer. 4A is a great feature on these trucks (took Ford entirely too long to copy Chevy on this), but if you aren't having traction problems on road, run 2H.

    BIG BROTHER IS FILMING YOU INSIDE THE GEN 3

    I'm usually the person saying this, but the fact of the matter is I don't want to be recorded unless I choose to be. So buying a Raptor that videos me all time - let alone any other vehicle - is out of the question. The alphabet agencies can make up whatever data they want to paint you into a...

    WTF!!?? Is This True!!?? Ford to Ship Incomplete Builds.

    My wife's 2006 trailblazer just had the transmission go out. We were on the fence about fixing it up - tho we have loved the thing - but it didn't take long to see vehicles with 100k+ miles on them going for over $35k to make us feel a lot better about getting a new transmission put into it. The...

    5 year-old daughter's first time off-roading

    My son has been asking to go again and again - probably will go weekend after next. My daughter has been soured on the experience a bit, which I was afraid of. I forgot racing neck braces are a thing - buy some of those and I bet a 5 year old will be fine. I'm gently trying to warm my daughter...

    TRX vs Raptor Comparison

    fake news. I ran with a TRX at Texplex my last outing and he was surprised at how much faster I could go in my stock Gen 2. There's one straightaway I'm certain he could have gotten to a higher speed, but the added front weight and inferior suspension meant he was slower everywhere else. This...
