Maybe the frames shouldn't bend while offroading with a $60k offroading specific truck?

Being used for offroad and jumping it as far as you can are two different things.LJ;1065087 wrote:Shouldn't happen on a brand new truck being used for what it was advertised as.

I know I've seen the frame and that's the only way possible it got bent. So either you're full of shit or the person who told you they didn't jump it is full of shit.LJ;1065096 wrote:Glad to know you don't even know the story :laugh:

They were doing nothing but trail running out west. What the truck was supposedly built for. Google it.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1065100 wrote:I know I've seen the frame and that's the only way possible it got bent. So either you're full of shit or the person who told you they didn't jump it is full of shit.

Yes because you always get the full story from a one sided perspective. Nothing is ever omitted when one is trying to make a claim. People are inherently honest.LJ;1065103 wrote:They were doing nothing but trail running out west. What the truck was supposedly built for. Google it.

Ok, I'll go your route then. The guy whose 4x4 didn't work HAD to have driven around on dry pavement in 4-lo to break it.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1065127 wrote:Yes because you always get the full story from a one sided perspective.

That's why Ford has a seperate system for 4 lo and 4 hi with with actuators at the wheels on 4hi. B/c Ford is smarter than GM.LJ;1065129 wrote:Ok, I'll go your route then. The guy whose 4x4 didn't work HAD to have driven around on dry pavement in 4-lo to break it.

And don't you drive a dodge? You have to replace your ball joints on every oil change. Shittiest front ends in history of trucks.

I had a Dodge 2500 as a beat around truck. Sold it to a local farmer for more than I paid for it. I see it hauling grain wagons and hay wagons all the time.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1065171 wrote:And don't you drive a dodge? You have to replace your ball joints on every oil change.

I drive a 2010 Z71 most of the time.

It actually never had any front end issues in the 15k and 2 years I had it. The bigger issue was the blown head gaskets and seized plugs that needed tapped out.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1065180 wrote:Lucky for him it's already offroad b/c he wouldn't be able to keep it on the road.
