Anyways, you know what I learned? These fucking things suck at off-roading.

no shit, they're running live axle suspension, no amount of lift kit is going to get your diff case unstuck from the mud LMAO.

Doesn't help that these idiots also put small tires on big rims to get that bafflingly stupid look on them, which lowers the ride quality, and lowers the axle even more.

I'm convinced you have to be brain damaged to own a bro dozer, let alone think an f150 with live axles can get around in mud. Bro almost nothing can, a humvee might do it, but it's also literally built to do it. It's got full independent suspension, nice large tires with high sidewalls, portal axles for increased clearance. It's got a low cab, set next to the engine and transmission (that's why they're so wide) They're short, so they can get around trees and shit and likewise have a low CG.

And f150 looks like it was built to be a parody of a hummer, and it's no surprise that they drive and handle like shit as a result.
