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...

The Macan and GT2 RS are very different Porsches lol

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.

Its worth whatever someone else is willing to pay lmao why is this a thread.

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...

I'll be back to quote this again in a year lmao

Rogue Racing is a name I haven't heard in a while, what ended up happening to them?

One cent per clunk! Only the fairest of compensation!

Interested if above falls through.

Hey @FordTechOne , this had me thinking. Are all the 10R80s mechanically the same? ie; all of the transmissions in the F150, Raptor, Mustang, Navigator, etc. across all of Ford's engines are mechanically exactly alike, with obvious transmission tuning differences? It would be cool to flat...

Thank you, I would've ensured I was drawing from the correct vernacular had I been contributing to a technical document at work. lmao

You're spoiled with the Raptor, the 10r80 actually shifts pretty well with the Raptor alternate solenoid profiles in manual and sport modes. Trying to manual shift an F150 is an exercise in futility. The gear change command and the execution are a decade apart.

Only digital dash I've ever enjoyed is the modern Audi one. Everything else is laggy, and regular analog gauges work better in a performance situation for this reason.

Interested in the wheels if the first guy falls through.

There are always great deals on trucks, they're some of the highest margin vehicles on the market lol.

I'd ditch your Gen 2 for 5 link and self driving alone lol

You guys are a bunch of nannies. There was a video of a brand new '13 Ecoboost FX4 smoking everyone in the class, and it sold more eco trucks. No one thought the V6 could hang, no less deliver diesel like power. These trucks are toys, enjoy them and rebuild them.

The balls of that dealership lmao... Have you ever wanted your truck payment to match your mortgage? Well now it can, for the low low price of One Twenty Nine, Nine!
