Crap video , they won't tell what most people want to know , how it rides and handles with the live shocks.

they said that video is coming soon...

Looks like a pre production 801a, doesn’t have color matched mirriors which it should with the 360 camera, also doesn’t look like it has the upgraded productivity screen which they added to the 801 for 2019

Sounds like they are not allowed to disclose anything about riding and shocks, until date x.
Click bait.

The screen between the gauges. The old 800 and 801 used to get the small screen and mechanical upper small gauges, only the old 802 got the bigger 8” screen with no mechanical inner gauges. Now the 801 and 802 according to the order guide gets the 8” screen.

I hope your right in regards to the upgraded productivity screen. I live in Ontario Canada and I know on my spec sheet it shows the 4.2" productivity screen on my 801A order. That being said I know the specs are different from US to Canada as I get remote start, torson front diff box lights as part of my 801A. I just got my VIN on Thursday for a Dec 31 week build. Truck was ordered Sept 24. Glad to see there starting to make there way to the dealerships too.

Not just that, I saw the full assault video, the damn new raptors still body roll and nose dive effect after braking.
What the hell is the live shock doing for the vehicle?
I knew I was right with my intuition. I knew because no one not even ford showed any video prior to release of what the live shocks were gonna do for us. But they were quick to show the Recaro and trail control.

Thanks for posting that you clearly don’t understand the basics of chassis control and weight transfer for ripping a 6000lb truck.

Will remember to ignore everything you post regarding suspension.

Glad to see the truck still dives under braking to transfer weight to the already understeering nature of the truck to help the back end rotate.

Maybe you like plowing corners and being slow - but people who rip don’t.

Bunch of armchair vehicle dynamic specialists in here who failed armchair engineering 101 at that.
