TTB is as independant as independant can be. Both tires move completly independant of each other.

That's it! I'm selling my stroker Ranger, my Explorer (cause they are based off the same design), my F350 dually (just to be safe), AND my 87 Tintop, and buying me a battery powered smart car and a segway (I'm willing to bet that's 1 and 2 on their best list)

screw them. they're just trying to get people to read their stupid magazines.

the chevy/dodge guys get all hard b/c a ford is listed as the worst, so they go get a copy and frame it (cause they're d-bags). the ford guys get all mad b/c a ford is worse. same thing with the jeep guys.

to semi-quote blazing saddles "off-road magazines? we dont need no stinking off-road magazines!"
reminds me of a discussion we had in school a few days ago. im the only one around with my b2, and nobody else in my school is big into offroadin like me and my buddy with his jeep. all they say is my b2 is junk because its not a dodge ram. i just reply with 'i dont see you driving anything? when you do get a vehicle, ill give you a thousand dollars if you can make it where the b2 will go'. they just reply with something about their dads pickup. douchebags!

anything is crap is you rate it from a stock perspective. if it's moded for off road use then it is a different story. Purpose built vehicles are never a part of a bullcrap magazine rating. I hate petersons mags anyway. I would gladly take a B2 over many new trucks, as long as you give me about 20K to mod it out.

My dad had a BII and hated it. Although he never drove it offroad, so really this is pointless, but he says it was the biggest piece of crap he has ever owned.

i had a bII that was sweet, it was bulletproof, and had a motor that didn't actually exist in north america... had i know that at the time, it never would have gone to the scrap yard... (2.3L v6) and yes, it was for sure, a 2.3L v6... no idea where it came from, but that's what it was... unless someone managed to fit a 2.3L intake onto a v6, and the 2.3L intake looked identical to the 2.9L intakes...

though i only had it on the road for about 2 weeks when my mustang had no motor
