Baja mode for daily commute?

[Dav1000]

Same, also in Chicago. I've been liking the Sport mode w/Baja suspension on my daily commute to float over the holes


Definitely noticeable for me. Stiffest to softest is Sport > Normal > Baja imo

I was always under the impression that Baja would be the stiffest, so it wouldn’t bottom out when off roading . I guess that’s where the live valve comes into play. Soft, but firms up when it needs to. If this is the case, why wouldn’t everyone drive in Baja susp mode. Seems to be the best of both worlds.

I have tested Baja and sport on road. Sport is definitely firmer and keeps the truck more level in a cornet at speed. Baja will lean more and absorb more bumps

So for example going over rough train tracks, or a in maintained gravel road, Baja would soak it up and be smoother than normal mode?

This is me yesterday. Still having withdrawal 30 hours later. p.s. I'm in San Jose area. And Baja vs sport feels softer, as it should - good for compliance over uneven terrain.

Correct, seat of the pants feel, I would say Baja soaks up the terrain better than sport.

10/4. I had it backwards this whole time. I thought for sure baja would be the firmest.

Looks fun. Especially when it's someone else's truck

That it is! I just returned from Raptor Assault as well, what a hoot!

Yes, Baja mode is a blast, soaks up huge bumps with ease, it’s a game changer on the trails at speed. It completely transforms the pickup into a confident, very responsive, comfortable trail runner…it’s “Sport mode for the off road”

I always wondered the same thing, as to whether off road mode/Baja mode would stiffen the suspension or soften it.

Near me on good ol pavement, freshly laid, brand new road, one small portion of it developed washboard ripples. Really unsettles the truck going over at 50 mph. Then I tried just off road on the suspension setting from steering wheel button. Unreal how it smoothed it out, almost making as if the road was not rippled.

I found my gen 3 burbles in Baja mode, almost like gunshots, anybody else’s do this? P.S. I also have videos of this
