I live on an island where only 10 miles of the roads are paved and everything else is pot hole city and a combination of dirt and rock. It's also covered in ice, snow, slush and a combination of mud and sand. I plan to use my Raptor as a daily driver so I can stop being on pins and needles hoping my fwd german car doesn't end up in a ditch. Also, i'll take it up to the mountains (about 20 minute drive behind my office) and out to the beaches. It's not about the engine to me, it's about the sturdiness of the build, ride comfort (dirt roads remember), and durability as the weather conditions out here are either suck or suck less. Ya'll enjoy your nice paved existence and i'll enjoy my Alaskan living.

You know what was cool about FRF? No one was trying to say their truck was "better" than anyone else's. Everyone was just trying to make their truck unique to suit his/her needs or wants, and got inspiration from others who had posted up the mods done trying to do the same thing. Unless someone posted about lifting the truck, people were genuinely interested in and supportive of damn near every idea owners have had to tweak what ford created for enhanced performance, looks, or whatever. It's the apparent need to compare, like a **** measuring contest, that's come about since the gen2 that's diminished what ownership of these trucks is all about: brotherhood and good times. Maybe a different sort of crowd has been drawn to the gen2 as opposed to the gen1, or maybe it's just a small group of ********** making it seem that way, but it's unfortunate either way. Enjoy your trucks, and quit trying to compare or rank yours to everyone else's; that's not what this is supposed to be about.
