The Boss 302 Laguna Seca will have 2 Black Keys and 1 Red key. The Red key is supposed to kill all Traction Control Settings, remap the engine, and allow a higher rev limiter. It goes in the same ingnition sa the black ones. Not like the Veyron sad to say.

Hard to come up with a "worst" part.... I find this truck to be pretty damn satisfying, it satiates my off-road jollies and is damn comfortable in the process. Doesn't hurt that it turns heads everywhere I go either.


That being said, I would have liked to have seen the processes involved in getting to the fun mode (2H, off-road mode on, traction control off, locker engaged) to be less of a cumbersome process. Really the only part that is inconvenient to me is the traction control hold/blink process.... If you have any warning lights, etc on your dash (such as a TPMS warning light when you air down your tires for romping) the "wait for it to blink" part is even more of a nuisance. It's no deal-breaker by any means, but it could have been better.

Oh-Shit Handles would've been nice for the passengers, but it is my understanding that SVT tried to add more but kept running into problems locating them around the side curtain airbags, etc.

And i know I'm not the only desert Raptor owner that would've been more than willing to pay more money for air conditioned seats.

All those things are small potatoes though in the grand scheme of things. This truck still manages to put a smile on my face every single day, and for me, that says a lot.
