It’s no TRX but it’s been enjoyable for nearly 60k miles now

Whats the specs on yours?

EDIT: Found it. Laramie with blackout package and 22 inch wheels. How do the wheels ride? I had 20s on my edge sport, 21s on my mkx, and 20s on my F150 so I would imagine the 22s def give plenty of feedback even with bigger tires.

The ride is pretty smooth. The nitto ridge grapplers are very nice, I went with 305/45R22 vs a true 33x12.5 as the carcass is not as beefy so it cuts down on ride harshness as well as rotating mass.

I have air suspension so that helps a bit but even the coil sprin trucks i test drove felt smooth. All in all I’m happy with the truck but it feels under powered. I’ve debated bolt ons and tune as I’m sure that would help but lately I find myself wanting back into a more powerful sedan so we’ll see how I feel come end of this year.

Were you there for some off-road lighting?

No. The guy that owns the shop is a friend of mine and he can save about 20% on lift kits because he buys in bulk (50+ at a time) so I always have him lift my trucks.

Thanks. ZR2 has multimatic suspension which is turning out to be a PIA for lift options. Debating selling to avoid the heartbreak

Correct. It's not impossible. I've seen them before!

Are you considering a 2wd under bumper valance? They look really nice on 4wd trucks.
Although...yours is tall enough, it no longer looks so big like on stock/leveled trucks.

I wonder if the Tremor valance is available and if it is stupid expensive...?

It wouldn't be very expensive.

I'm already at about 12mpgs...a small valance would drop it even further haha

Ha! If you think a valance makes any MPG difference now...you ain't as smart as we all thought! lol

You're right, the Tremor valance is under $100.
Looks like a nice subtle mod.
