Dammit!!! I'll have to check with my dealer to see if they will still warranty it if I tune.

Ford has definitely stepped up their game. I'd rock a Raptor anytime!

Whoops, is this the GM section?

Im not a fan of it, but if it makes you happy that's it. Harley 6.2 is nice though. Congrats!

I like the ford interiors but feel the ford seats are very uncomfortable compared to the GM seats.

The seats suck compared to gm seats, have a few fords at work, I generally agree the interior has a better design, but that wouldnt ever make me consider trading up, those 6.2s are less then impressive IMO

I agree. The ford 6.2 doesn't feel as powerful as the gm from factory, but the interior in the harley is pretty damn nice.

That kind of suprises me as the ford 6.2 stock seems to dyno higher than the gm 6.2. The dyno #s kind of depress me as the gm needs premium fuel. It may be the 35" tires or torque managment to blame for the ford feeling slower.
