Jamal explains why the Gen II is better than the Gen I.

[SVT_Aaron]

I'm not making it drama. You guys keep trying to discount a bunch of things you don't like about the Gen II


@Randy M

Hold the **** up dude, go read what i posted in the other thread then come back and talk to me. I never once said anything bad about the 2017 truck so before you decide to go keyboard warrior again, get your ****** little facts straight and then think about what shit is about to come out of your mouth before you say anything.

my post in this thread was just stating that its going to start all over again and its interesting yet amusing and kind of unnecessary. now i see why all of these guys were saying all of the shit they said to you.

Note: im not mad at all, im just a very vulgar person

Randy M is like a little chihuahua, the closer you get the more it barks. If you leave it alone itll go away and take a nap somewhere quietly.

Now most of you know Im one of the EB supporters around here but I do understand the possible drawbacks of the EB compared to a NA v8. I really want this new EB 3.5L to be one hell of an awesome motor, not so Gen 2 owners can tell Gen 1 owners to suck it but because itll make the Raptor better as a whole. Isnt that what everyone wants? Their Raptor to be the best it can be? I want the motor to be good so the Raptor is good. No one wants it to flop because that tarnishes the name (see Pinto). Im just trying to be optimistic and hope Ford has shit figured out enough that allows the Gen 2 to be all its said to be.

Now will the EB be better than the 6.2L? No one knows, absolutely no one. We can bicker back and forth about which one is better and why but as of right now its been bickered enough and without real world long term testing no one knows whats going to happen. Could it be an amazing motor that blows the Gen 1 out of the water? Absolutely. Could it be a complete flop after a lot of hard bashing? Absolutely.

Sure we can see past data from EB motors and their downfalls and compare those to the 6.2L but to me thats not exactly a fair fight since this is an all new motor. Hopefully since its an all new motor they will have some, if not most of the wrinkles ironed out from the first EB and its downfalls.

Is the Gen 1 a badass truck? Absolutely and I wish I could afford one along with the Gen 2 but I have to choose one and Im putting my money on the Gen 2 simply because I want a new truck and the new tech. Will I sell the Gen 2 if it turns out to be a piece of trash and seek out a Gen 1? Absolutely.

Everyone can bicker with Randy M about talking points until they are blue in the face and he will come right back with more talking points until he is blue in the face. At what point do you step back and stop taking the bait? Hell, I did that shit for awhile just because it was fun to go back and forth but it does get boring rather quickly when everyone just starts repeating themselves over and over.

My advice: Randy M calm the **** down, we get it, you like the Gen 2 (guess what? I do too, a lot) and it has the possibility of being a great truck but until long term tests are done no one knows that 100% so calm your shit.

Everyone else, stop feeding the troll if you cant handle it.

Woah, @zanemasterx is now the voice of reason. Who woulda thunk that? Kudos to you.

It's not so much as members not liking the 2017 or what you say about it, it's more them just not liking you. Give the 2017 crutch a rest.

The scenario whether you should be countinued to be welcomed here or not is a real scenario. I mean it's fun and all watching you dig yourself deeper and deeper but at what point is it enough. I'm sure you can't deny you're trolling and stirring the pot to evoke arguments.

And as far as the frame bending issue... Go do more "research".

The only reason I'm not liked here is that I'm expressing opinions about the '17 (within the '17 section) that are positive comments. For whatever reason these guy don't like guys who like it. And they keep quoting and posting about it here, once again in the '17 board. I've called them clowns for being rude but other than that I can't see why this ban stuff is being spoken of.

my mind says your a ******* idiot so you must be

If anything is worthy of a ban it's this.

Unless zanemasterflex and Randy M are the same guy and zmasterflex finally found an outlet to speak his mind...

Nope, sorry to disappoint! Ive spoken my mind and did so a year ago after the initial press release of the 2017 SCAB. I also realize I might of pushed some buttons a little too hard then so Im more of a casual observer now.

New year new you. I like your style.

Ford needs to make an ecoboost TT V8 already. I bet it debuts in the next GT500 and a detuned version makes its way into the Raptor in 2 yrs. That would be the one to get.
