Again, why can't I maximize what I drive in all respects?

By your logic, I should buy the absolute minimum capability needed for my requirements.

That ain't how I live brah. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed.
You have that wrong, by my logic i maximize the capabilities used and don’t compromise on anything I dont. Which is why if I don’t go off road I don’t look at a vehicles off road capabilities, if I am buying a track car I don’t care about how much groceries it holds, if I am buying a car to commute 3mi to work I don’t care about the mpg it gets……. Do you get it now?


You didn’t comprehend my post very well, I’m not saying buy the minimum for capable for your needs, I am saying why not maximize what you ACTUALLY do need and not worry about what you don’t need.

No. Why don't YOU spend less time worrying about what I need or don't need?

I asked a question to anyone that mall crawls their Raptor, you answered . We are having a conversation and I was assuming we were all adult enough to do that . Was I wrong?

Because your original post stated that you assumed anyone who cares about HP and V8 is a mall crawler.

That is dumb and wrong.

Your words:

"Most ppl in this thread only seem to be considered with HP and a V8 so I can only assume your trucks are mall crawlers"

Most ppl get a tune before anything, Others do light suspension mods both of which cancel out factory engineering

I seriously doubt even 1 in 5 Raptors are tuned. Maybe in the subset of owners who have a serious offroad hobby sure, but as has been stated many times before, most Raptors are just DDs. Honestly, if we did a survey of FRF members, I bet you wouldn't get above 50% saying they've tuned or done suspension mods.
