    Sand Mode

    So Sand mode puts the truck into 4A, turns off traction control, and holds gears longer before upshifting......does it do anything else? Cuz if I can get everything Sand Mode does by just putting it in 4A and turning traction control off, then using the manual shifting, I'd prefer that. Just...

    Tire Pressure for Beach (deep soft sand)

    Going to the beach soon. What tire pressures work for these vehicles? Some guides say between 15-20psi, some say between 10-15psi... They all say even a few psi lower in that range makes a huge difference. But it might be a little different with our trucks, given they weigh ~6000lbs. How low...

    Toyo Open Country AT III vs Falken Wildpeak AT3W

    Any opinions? Looking for a tire that'll be reasonable on the highway, but better offroad than stock, good aired-down in deep sand, and better than all-seasons in winter (in the Northeast).

    Largest no-mods tire size with Bilstein 5100s

    I have a 2021 Max FX4. Will be doing some beach driving, and want bigger tires. I've settled on doing Bilsteins all around (all at the max 1.6" lift) instead of the Readylift 3/2. What's the largest tire diameter I can run with the Bilsteins without having to mess with anything else?

    Readylift 3/2 - highway ride, mileage

    Thinking of doing the Readylift 3/2 on my 2021 max fx4. Would probably upsize tires a little too. Will be doing some mild offroading. But does the lift affect highway ride quality or gas mileage much?

    Sand driving - manual says 'avoid reducing tire pressures'

    Everyone who routinely drives in deep sand says it's critical to reduce tire pressures significantly to reliably not get stuck. But the manual on my 2021 FX4 says "When driving over sand...avoid reducing the tire pressures but shift to a lower gear and drive steadily through the terrain". Why...

    Lift, tire, wheel combo

    I'm picking up a new 2021 MAX FX4 soon. I intend to be on the beach with this every so often, but also plenty of normal city/highway combo driving. Planning on doing the readylift 3/2 and bigger tires (I look the lifted look, plus it'll help on the beach). I think I'm settled on the Falken...

    What wheels and tires for sand?

    I have a 2021 XLT Max FX4 on order. Picking it up soon (I hope). I plan on doing a good bit of driving on the beach, including deep soft stuff for miles. I'll probably do the readylift 3/2. Obviously I'll air down a lot (15-20psi) for the sand driving, but what's my best option for tires? I...
