I am not trying to sway people out of buying 2019.
It is the latest for sure.
But if you sole purpose is in the live shock being exponentially better than the 18 one, you must be delusional.
What kind of performance will it provide to make if that much better than 2018? Will it be an improvement the answer is yes, but it will be though to justify it.
By no means am I telling people not to buy 19, just know that the shock improvement will not be that much better
Hey! He finally admitted there will be an improvement. Hooray! Now we're getting somewhere.

Yes improvement, but car will,still roll and nose braking effect will still happen.
The only improvement is the auto adjustment of the shock

So what is the live shock helping us do?
Now let's get to the real answer:
Automatically doing what 2018 raptor has manually.
Instead of choosing different driving options which really do change shock intensity, live shock will do it for you. How the **** is this a better improvement?

I've said this several times already -- But if I must, I'll say it again: Everything you just noted is completely baseless and without any merit whatsoever.

Could the new shocks only be a marginal improvement over the old? Sure. Could they also be a huge improvement that more than justifies the increase in price? Also sure.

The point is both of these are scenarios are possible. However you won't find me digging my heels in the dirt over either, because I don't have any facts or data to back either assertion.

What you're doing is throwing all your eggs into a single basket before you've even seen the basket. Not very smart.

No won't be noticeable improvement. That's why it won't matter.

1. Raptors will still body roll,
2. and the nose braking effect will happen.

These two Above will happen. Ford can't even fix it now.
bet $25 to charity of your choosing if I am wrong.

what in the ever living hell are you talking about? Please explain how changing drive modes on a 2018 changes shock intensity on NON ADJUSTABLE shocks.

go drive a gt350 without magneride, then go drive one with. It is essentially the same concept.

But i guess that gm and ford, plus F1 race teams are all fixated on developing fools gold.

you sir are wildly uninformed. If you actually are an "engineer" please let us know what you "engineer" so we can stay away from whatever it is.

Like President Trump, I like it my way!
Give me credit at least I have been 100% correct on my other predictions. I guess more of price predictions.
This will make ma a living frf guru if my prediction is in fact true. I will be very proud of it personally. Don't care how many people it offends. I used my engineering analysis to base my opinion. Let's just wait mate.

Thank you for your opinion only time will tell who is right or wrong!
At least do you accept that the body roll and nose braking effect will still exist with the live shock?

I hope they’re as good as you say... I waited for these puppies when I could have gotten an 18! [emoji28]

You're not offending anyone other than yourself.

You also haven't done any analysis whatsoever, as analysis requires data... and you have none. And as zombiekiller already pointed out, the '18 shocks are not adjustable, meaning what little logic you provided in a poor attempt to defend your stance is absolutely incorrect.

So let me provide an example of how an engineer renders an assessment: Based on your post history, lack of meaningful data, and contradictory statements, it's my finding that you are most certainly NOT an engineer... Or really any kind of profession that requires an education. You're one damn good troll though.

it will be significantly less and potentially gone. And yes, I have ACTUAL EXPERIENCE with a pre-production truck as my basis for the opinion.

In case you didn't know, legit prerunners and every TT or 6100 that ive been in drives like a bobble head on mr. toad's wild ride. The secret sauce is that while they are a handful, they are really predictable.

If you want something with no nose dive, body roll, etc, you're considering the absolute wrong vehicle and sport. You need to be looking at drifting.

I accept nothing based on your reasoning capabilities.
