Sticking with Gen 2?

[cstrickland]

So, with the Gen 3 being out a few years now…. I’m curious to know why you would stick with your Gen 2 vs going with the Gen 3? I’m looking into getting both -I’ve been looking into it for years and I’ve asked the Gen 3 thread if they would have stick with their Gen 2’s or if they’re happy. On the thread I received all great Gen 3 feedback. I also got messages sayin they wish they would have stuck with their Gen 2’s. So tell me - why are you sticking with Gen 2 and not making the switch? Or at least waiting to make the switch?

Supercab is why i am staying. My truck is so nimble on and off road, i’ve driven Screws and it has always made me happy I stuck to my Supercab. In my opinion they just feel different. I know it’s vague but that’s my gut talking.

Exact reason we have kept ours SCAB. If we would have had a SCREW probably would've upgraded to Gen3.

The rear suspension and interior aren't worth the monetary cost for me, yet.

SCAB - I prefer the function and looks.

Realistically for me, it is that I am cheap. And the wife said not yet. Haha.

im two pour 2 a ford it
the ADMs are more than i make in a year

But seriously the Gen 2 already has more tech than i need, i came from a 2004 f150 and an xlt ranger. I dont see the huge interior jump between 2 & 3 others see, and i prefer the mix of real gauges and screen the gen 2 has (or the new gen xlts). I personally think all digital gauges look cheap. I was actually thinking of getting a gen juan for cheaper, but man finding one without rust even in fl is a struggle. Brothers raptor nearly fell apart from rust, not even a spec of rust on my Lightning from 2004.

Wish i had the gen 3 suspension though, but im pretty close with eclik and live valves.

Unless this gen gives me loads of trouble i plan on keeping it. Plus performance blue best blue.

Unrelated im surprised Terrain hasnt made a comeback yet, was my favorite colors on the Gen 1s, too bad they didnt come on the SE ones

same here, a scab or nothing ! I juste regret to not have rear gen3 suspension with independant link, it's the only thing I miss on mine . May, one day i will put independant suspension...
Also, prices of gen3 are too high...Market is beacame crazy...

I've invested too much into my Suspension. Not worth giving It all up for what I consider minor upgrades. Plus I plan on throwing a Coyote in it at some point.

The only thing I like in the Gen 3 over the 2 is the rear suspension. That's not enough for me to switch so I am just upgrading my Deuce.
