Question for former Gen 2 owners now in a Gen 3.

[Edski]

I know there have been a few of these threads but looking for more feedback. Have a 2018 Gen 2 with 55K miles. Very clean garage kept. (Cam phasers repaired and a 100K mile Ford Platinum warranty) My new Gen 3 is on the lot at MSRP. Was thinking after 5 years I should just get a new one. Now not so sure. Any advise appreciated.
thanks in advance

Haven't see a whole lot of people on here publicly stating they wish they could go back to a Gen2. There is more than enough information on here for you to come up with your decision though.

Not sure what sort of feedback you’re seeking here. Either you want a new truck or you don’t. You started the buying process for a reason, didn’t you?

No, that's for sure. Except for the Torsen guys. Thanks

Yep I did, went down the Torsen rabbit hole and caused me pause. thanks

Well, you’re not getting Torsen on the 2023 Gen3. So, if that’s something you want, I think you have your decision.

I loves my gen 2 and had plans to keep it even after buying another truck. I bought the gen 3 after it was stolen. I like the gen 3. I'm not happy about why i bought it but I'm happy with the outcome.

do you even off-road, bro? LOL, sorry, I couldn't resist.

How often do you off-road and what kind of off-roading do you do?

Haha on my way to Starbucks. Sorry, just high speed dirt roads. thanks

How often are you in 4hi doing high speed runs? I’m guessing you won’t even notice the difference. If you do put it in 4wd, odds are it won’t pull to the right. I’d see that as good thing.

I’d take the improved rear suspension over torsion. Plenty of Gen 3’s going to Baja to do high speed runs.
