Motor Trend thought the recaro seats were a must especially for off roading.

Motor Trend thought the recaro seats were a must especially for off roading.

I have slid around a tiny bit offroading, but nothing to the point where I thought I needed/wanted a different seat. Given the supposed wear-life of alcantara (not to mention cleaning considerations) I'd rather have the leather seats unless it was truly just a desert toy.

Reading their article now; per usual, quality stuff. Best one yet I think

Im not buying it! Mamula said that you could mark his words that the new shocks would be a bust.

Idiots abound online, as evidence by TFL youtube channel comments.

I've seen it from several sources now - the midpoint compression/rebound settings of the 19 is what the 17/18 is set to. So (just as you'd expect) the 17/18 is set 50/50, and the Fox Live can go 100/0 or 0/100.

Mine was built on that day and it is on a train, loaded last Friday.

Mine was built on 10/25 as well. Ford tracker changed to 12-4 from 12-6 today for delivery. Just talked with my dealership - going through head of fleet sales due to a relationship with owner. It is on a train. He said they haven’t been showing up early. He shows 11-28 through 12-4 (same as FP). Hopefully it gets here on the 28th or 29th. They will spray in bed liner and tint the windows the day it arrives and it will be ready to go the next day. Owner has another business that does that- less expensive on bed liner and supposedly better job.

I love the fact that the ride is flatter and more firm!!!

They did say the ride was more taught on regular pavement, one of them said the ride was not as cushy as the 2018.

But remember the shocks don’t do anything (reposting for non believers).

Different shock and different vehicle. At least for this ATV the shock prevents body role and nose braking. That is still happening for raptors

Who told yo so? at least not for raptor. I will expose you and the other non believers!
