So the following week after going to Pine Barrens we went to Famous Reading Outdoors. Went through mostly rocks and light dirt. Very dusty though but had a good time as always.

It would have been interesting to see what the Terrain management system and/or the rear locker would have done on those loose rocks.

That kind of loose rock is always tricky. Unless you have beadlocks, are aired down to 10 psi with Trepadors, you’ll always spin wheels and rock.

Truck looks good.

Unfortunately I don't have either. I could of aired down the tires more for better traction. I also shifted to S and kept it in first gear which I felt like it helped in some way.

Yeah, it did really well. I'm just always interested in seeing real world testing of the tech on the Ranger. It sounds great and I've heard a few reports of how well it works, but more confirmation is always good.

The truck does look really good!

You're right it was tricky and my first time. The wheels did spun a few times but not so much to wear I would kick back rocks to the guy behind me.
Thank you

That doesn't surprise me at all - the gaps on the sides of the tailgate are pretty large. I used this:

And it made a huge difference in dust in the bed under my tonneau cover.
Yeah, I have one of those, I'm trying to figure out how to mount it to actually work. The sides appear that they'd have to be attached behind the latch almost at the end of the taillights and it wouldn't help much on the bottom. Do you have pictures of how you installed it?
