[QUOTE="04SolidSnake, post: 9657247, member: 34055"] Ok I know you love your 6.2 and all, but if you plan to go offroading you *need* the 6.2? False. The tranny shifts better with the 6.2? False. Early Raptors can get a trans program update that solves the hunting problems. That has nothing to do with which engine you have, it is a software issue. Unless you are hill climbing, or outright racing, the 5.4 will work just fine for recreational offroading. I know mine does. For everyone saying you can make a 7.0+L out of the 6.2 casting.. While that may be true, but how many of you are going to take your brand new 40K truck, and pull the motor out for a build right off the hop? I think for the extra cash that the 6.2 is right now, it's not really worth it in the end. Once/if they adjust the pricing once the 6.2 is the only engine offered, then it'll be a much better deal. Lets not forget the 5.4L tune is soft as hell from the factory, so the 5.4 "rating" is very understated.. The 5.4 can perform very nicely for little investment in modifications. [/QUOTE]
