cross posting from general forum:
Lots of interesting quirks and features haha. I like the side storage door that doubles as a chair and portable kitchen set.

Nice Truck, love the features. What would be involved in putting 35" or 37" tires on it. No gears to change I guess ? Just have to clear the fenders ? Have you seen any comments on adding bigger tires ?

it's a super cool truck, but not more of an off roader than any other pickup with those puny tires. Also the bed is only 4.5 feet (plywood???) if I remember right and the camera tech is the same awful garbage that was in my 2nd gen raptor - wondering how much more Ford there is in this one. I had one on pre-order for more than a year when I eventually canceled and bought a gladiator.

Yeah, reminds me of the super masculine Honda Ridgeline or the beautiful Hyundai Santa Cruz. I’m sure it will be very popular for anyone swayed by Twitter followers, men with man buns and anyone named Chad.
Bro - Chad would drive a Jeep or a Raptor. Chad isn't a twink.

Lol you’re probably right. But that Jeep has to have angry eyes and the Raptor has to have a monster sticker on it.

Very cool feature you only get with a separate motor on each axle. This is coming with an over the air software update.

(I figured I wouldn't start a new thread for this)
