From Edmunds, sponsored link on FordAuthority.com. Still interesting, though. These guys say to new PW will lock both diffs in 4W-Hi. Is that correct?

Re: PW vs Raptor Video
The review/comparison is fair. Too bad the boob doesn’t know how the lockers actually work.Ducky's Dad wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2019 1:29 pmFrom Edmunds, sponsored link on FordAuthority.com. Still interesting, though. These guys say to new PW will lock both diffs in 4W-Hi. Is that correct?

Re: PW vs Raptor Video
These raptor vs power wagon comparison videos rarely ever drive down any trails that have realistic rock-crawling, something that shows the true benefits of front and rear lockers and a disconnecting sway-bar, somewhere you might actually need that winch. It's easy to fly down a straight dirt road fast and make the raptor look good.
That video was filmed in the mojave desert near Randsburg CA. I have spent time out there exploring and off roading 80% of the terrain is rock-strewn canyons like the pics below. I went all the way through this trails with no vehicle damage I'd like to see a raptor do it!

Re: PW vs Raptor Video
id like to see a setup similar to mine in that comparison ...
Truth is, you cant find a new raptor for $60k ,70k, or 80k in south florida. If you want to Finance, youll be nearly $80k with dealer premium.
Maybe youll walk out for $75k for a loaded raptor if you paid cash.
so a complete thuren suspension could be the delta in price for sure.

Re: PW vs Raptor Video
Before I would to sink $80K on an F150 raptor, I'd buy the cheapest 2019 Ranger, at about $26K and can you imagine what upgrades and mods you could do with the other $54K ?? Hahaha.

I only do what the majority of the 4 voices in my head tell me to. In most cases, I ignore two of them because one doesn't speak English, and I suspect the other is talking to someone else.
