    My point is why would it matter gas or diesel? What’s your budget? 

    All trucks suck off road compared to side by sides. If you have a strong budget and plan to use your truck often off-road give Carli a call and set it up correctly.

    I got ya. That’s true. I’ve thought about buying an ohv of some kind. That might be the best option. 

    Im not sure who carli is

    I'm a Ford fanboy. IMO a solid front axle is awesome. Both of the powertrains are good but Chevy messed up with their stupid DEF tank hanging so dang low. I would not want to chance taking it offroad too much.

    Oh, good point. I didn’t even think about that. I’m a ford guy too, so I’m with you. I just assume all bigger trucks suck off-road though and if one is demonstrably better off-road, it would get the nod

    I may regret starting a debate, but would love some input... I need a bigger truck, but am terrified that I’ll hate a diesel for off- road and hunting. Looking at crew cab, short bed 250s and 2500s. I’m looking at 2017-new. Here are some questions.

    1.) for those of you who have gone from a half ton to diesel, how bad is the drop off in off-road capability? Did you hate the change? 

    2.) what are the pros and cons for the ford straight front axle vs GM’s independent front suspension? Which is better off-road?

    3) don’t worry about telling me about dodges, lol

    thanks in advance

    I rarely feel compelled to share my experience with businesses I use, but I can’t say enough good things about BDM Customs! They are honest and knowledgeable people who do great work. I discussed this setup with a few shops around the valley and was irritated by the fact nobody could justify their quotes with math that made any sense at all. I spent five minutes on the phone with Jason at BDM and got a fair quote with line by line detail. it’s very clear they’re not shady or trying to up-sell you. I highly recommend them. As a bonus, they support and donate to Arizona Elk Society and various hunting groups that serve disabled vets and kids.7E248ED3-5CD2-4772-AC53-8892737C6565.thumb.jpeg.80a9985d266fbd104483e84c0c288fa3.jpeg
