You might have ordered a Gen 2 if..

You really don't understand just how badly a blown gen1 with 3.0 suspension will beat on a stock gen2, do ya?

You could fill a warehouse with what @17Jake doesn't understand.

Ha.. I bet you could fill all the parking lots filled with broke down gen2's also...

Doesnt appear to be a shortage of either of those

He really does on care, he wants to flip it and make a few bucks it is a winter ride for him and nothing more.

I could care less about modded/blown junk > G2's the new KING

Bingo! Jackpot! Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! You have just said everything we need to hear. Thanks for being honest.

Yeah, I suppose that every Gen1 left the factory perfect and as scheduled....

Sitting in Dearborn waiting for shipment/retrofits/fixes is not the same as broke down.

Also I don't think anyone thinks a blown Gen1 with 3.0s won't be better than a stock Gen2, but that's not apples to apples, now is it? Stock Gen1 vs stock Gen2, that's a fair comparison, and soon we will all be able to see how that plays out (even if Ford themselves have already said that comparing the Gen2 to the Gen1 is like comparing the Gen1 to a stock F150). Modded Gen1 to Modded Gen2 will be interesting since it will take a little time for the aftermarket to get to the same level of support for the Gen2 that the Gen1 has. Not to knock the Gen1 since it was the innovator and we wouldn't have the Gen2 without it, but it wont be long before modded Gen2s are out there beating on modded Gen1s. It's called evolution. Starting with a better foundation allows for better gains.

no thanks required > that's just how it is

It's amazing how much more enjoyable these forums are now that I've added 17Jake to the IGNORE list with Jackie. It almost makes me laugh every time I see the little entry that says...

17Jake
This message is hidden because 17Jake is on your ignore list.

It's just a pleasant little reminder that he's out there ranting about a truck that he doesn't actually give a shit about and yet I don't have to listen.

I highly recommend that everyone else give it a try.

Not wasting my time responding to all of this, but when you factor in cost it's a very fair comparison..

Cost+inflation= not fair comparison.
