Half of my total miles are on dirt, deep snow, and packed snow roads. On snow super aggressive throttle response isn't exactly what you need especially on ice at speed.

Totally hear you about ice and snow. I use to live in Aspen Co for a long time and am very familiar with snow driving. The cool thing about the PC is you have 4 separate modes, with 8 individual setting per mode. In fact, for the snow, you can dumb the throttle down a bunch if you so choose to help reduce wheel spin. However, someone like you who spends half of the time on dirt roads and owns a Raptor, would actually benefit big time from having one installed on your truck. The minute you put the truck into Offroad mode, you get all the benefits of that setting. The unfortunate thing about Offroad mode setting is Ford elected to drastically dumb down throttle response. So, if you have a PC, you can now put the truck in offroad mode, have all the benefits of increased yaw angles, airbag functions, 2wd rear locker with all the aggressive throttle response set by you, not Ford. In no way is this a downside or a gimmick.

To give you an idea, there are currently two open class race cars running a PC. One of these cars has won their class at the Baja 500, and were blown away at how much better the car drove with it at their desired setting. You can tune the PC to work just right for you.

If you are totally against them, then so be it. I would just urge you to try one at a local event, and see for youself how much better the truck drives with one on, vs. not having one on at all. It's worth the price of admission just for being able to override off-road modes dumbed down throttle response.

Zane wants you to give him one for free then he might change his mind. He wants you to prove a hater wrong so he can admit it and thinks it will sell more. But he can get it for free with the 14 day guarantee but doesn't want to try it regardless. Haters always going to hate. I got my PC from Jeff at SVC and love it. Thanks SVC!

I have a Gen2 so if I want to dumb down my throttle response I put it in snow mode. If I want to run "eco" I stay in normal. If I want throttle response kicked up a notch I go to sport. If I want shit to get weird I go to Baja where even looking at the throttle wrong makes it start to twitch.

Id def try it with an open mind on someone elses truck but for right now I have no issues drifting down logging roads and acting like a hooligan ruining new tires in my own truck without it.

I 100% get the appeal of the PC and the allure of it especially at first but my driving style I like to feel the throttle and drive through situations and I dont need a super touchy throttle to accomplish that.

Pedal max for the win....

It is 10 bucks cheaper. And drama free at the moment

Read this before you think Pedal Max is a winning choice, lol

What is the Difference Between Throttle Response Controller Brands?

@Pedal Commander maybe you should get rid of all your dealers and distribute through amazon to stop all of this childish nonsense.

We do! :biggrin:

Also PC just walked around Aarons comment about this forum not getting a discount code with a weak ass response that "we have it good because we have Raptors" which is a nice way of saying "**** you and pay the Raptor tax" which is BS.

Scenario:

I post a FRF coupon code, everyone buys from me and no longer has any reason to buy PC from SVC or Freedom.

SVC and Freedom stop being dealers for me, all 3 of us lose.

Please, explain to us, the great unwashed who simply don’t understand how this price cutting was a bad thing, was in fact a bad thing.

It WASN'T a bad thing. Thats just it. Someone (unnamed) made it into a bigger deal than it was. Shopping for the best price between dealers is just how the business goes.

I'm here to tell everyone that I want SVC and Freedom to give you guys deals. Go order from your favorite dealer, whether its because they gave you the best price, the best customer service, the fastest shipping, whatever. I want everyone to win. :favorites13:

They way you have responded to this whole situation pretty much made my mind up. I'll spend my money with both of the venders in Question but you will not see a dime of it, good product or not! So keep on chiming in, make no difference over here!

This is what WAS going to happen as a result of the childish "price cutting" that was going on between my dealers. I stepped in and said that wouldn't be fair. SVC and Freedom and ANY of my other dealers can post "10% off orders on our website this weekend for Labor Day!!!" just like I can.



You guys have it good. Ford came out with a badass truck and the aftermarket community was ready for you with superchargers and turbos and pulleys and light bars and intakes. Other brands got stuck with very little support. Raptor is my #1 selling vehicle. Right behind you guys is the new Chevy Colorado/GMC Canyon. Can you name a company that primarily focuses on aftermarket parts for them off the top of your head? I can't, lol. So since I don't have/can't find a Colorado/Canyon dealer, they get a small discount from my website. YOU guys get the better end of the deal because you get awesome dealers like SVC and Freedom. Companies you've already worked with and trust with your money. And yes, I'm going to let them do the same discounts I'm capable of doing. But I can't list $269.99 on my website, just like they can't. We ALL list at the MAP of $299.99.

I'm a consumer like you guys. I've built multiple cars, trucks and motorcycles on multiple platforms and spent small fortunes on car parts. I've experienced both sides, and I am going to be fair to both sides.

first, need picture if you're good looking carry on hahaha

second who gives a rat's ass what a vendor sells at make Freedom buy in bulk to make it so-called fair.

making FRF great again

The pedal delay that ford programmed in is for people like you..."pedal smashers"

PC doesn't make the throttle super touchy, it makes it accurate. So when you give 60% you get 60% exactly at the rate you apply the throttle.
