GEN2 VS GEN 3 OVERALL TAKE:

-Interior of a GEN3 is miles ahead of a GEN2. While i never really had complaints on my gen2, once you sit in a gen3 it makes the gen2 feel really dated. The bigger screen, digital dash, and all the tech alone makes me love the car.
-Aesthetics won't really change for me: the Gen2 exterior is superior in visual appearance IMO to that of a Gen3. I still catch myself breaking my neck for well built gen2's on the road.
-Off roading both cars in stock form: gen3 has a slight edge likely due to the 5-link rear. Nothing major IMO until you hop on the King train

For those that are wondering if its worth the switch:

My overall vote is yes.

Congrats on the new rig, super nice truck! I appreciate your take on the gen3 vs the gen 2. Most folks (especially in the FB gen 3 group) basically say that the gen 2 is like the Wright Brothers first plane vs the F35 fighter . Man I still love my Gen 2 and I've had it since new (12/17) and it's only got 45k miles on it. Mine is setup similar to your gen 2 was but with Fox. Sorry I'm making your thread all about me for the moment but if I remember correctly you got almost $90k for your gen 2 when you sold it? Think I would have too for that price haha. In all honesty, I'm really waiting for a hybrid raptor - that would get me to make a move.

Carry on, can't wait to see what you do with the gen 3!

No apologies necessary always love hearing others’ feedback as well. I sold it for 87k back then. I agree on the hybrid raptor part - I will likely sell mine
