    Exactly :thumbsup:
    How did we get from everyone can go everywhere just as easy as I can to well it's this or it's that, thought we were talking about truck to truck. If they all have to be the exact same then they should all be able to do the same thing. :rolleyes:

    what, old man? I think you're getting confused.

    the BS between you and I is just that you haven't gotten anywhere with your front locker that I didn't without, but mainly it's just BS bickering because you and I like to do that lol.

    the comments from everyone else is about how simple and easy you make things BECAUSE, AND ONLY BECAUSE, YOU HAVE A FRONT LOCKER and that it's stupid to not own a front locker and blah blah buncha dummies lol.

    I'm so anti front locker, I bought a 2WD! :rofl: And I'm going 35's for my next set of tires without trimming (saw someone on FB that claims to have done it).

    Sorry I'm really board at home today and just wanted to chime in :anonymous: :boink:

    I'm not sure how it will be put into your tax form, but my understanding from my tax guy is this "the stimulus check will be calculated based on your 2019 taxes line 18b for how much you qualify for. The check is an early payment of your 2020 tax return. So if you normally get back less than the stimulus advancement check, you beat the system and get to keep the extra without penalty." This was as of last Monday, so not up to date on any changes that have been made since then.

    You are the only one saying it the way you exaggerate it.
    Everything contributes to climbing hills, tires, size of tires, gearing, power and yes even a locker but that for some reason is a burr under your saddle. He was asking if he should get one while he was regearing and people was telling him the advantages of having one. If it was the tires or not that made it easy for me I can tell you for sure that situation is exactly what a locker is for.
    Not really sure what makes you feel you know if they help or not since you don't have one how do you know

    Crawl control is a manufactures way of getting newbies off road without breaking as many parts. Front Locker is for those want to go farther/harder than the manufacturer intended the truck to go.

    Crawl Control is mostly useless. It is ok if you are going down a long, steep, relatively smooth hill. I've also seen some videos where it works well in sand but for the most part its a useless gimmick.
    Also, the third gens will cut your power to try to prevent breakage when you need it most; even with CC and MTS turned off. It can be quite frustrating. :rant::rant::rant::rant::rant:

    I didn't even say anything in the beginning. @TacoAlaMode brought me in by saying IN FACT that I have done everything he has done while not having a front locker, except my own mental limitation items (the steep hill at chocco).

    The examples that have been provided, by you and others, were not factually made easier only because of locker. Did the locker help? sure. was it the only contributing factor and you could've done it just as easily with drag slicks? no that's stupid. nobody was commenting on the fact you have many many variables other than the front locker that made spots easier. The only examples you provided were when I got stuck on a tree for slick tires and everyone else got over it without a front locker, and spots that I struggled on, but still made, that you may have made easier but not 100% only because you had a front locker.

    TO THIS DAY I have still FACTUALLY stated and proven, to go everywhere without a front locker that folks who were with me went with a front locker. That has not been proven false. I have never once said, don't get a front locker, or that a front locker doesn't help. A front locker isn't a burr under my saddle lol, it just seems to bother all of you that you haven't successfully proven me wrong, as @TacoAlaMode stated.

    I'm simply giving @Brian422 a baseline, meaning no front locker, to see what all I've done and been capable of without it and to show that everything we all have done has been possible without one. Did you ever see me tell him not to get one? hell no. if he can get it half off, and can afford it, why not? go for it.

    Your funny :rofl::rofl:
    You need to attempt everything everyone else is doing to be able to say no one has did something that you couldn't :rofl: You are saying that where everyone else has gone that you wanted to go you made it. But that is not proving the point, it only proves that on all the easy obstacles that people have done that if you wanted to do them you made it, that proves nothing. You gotta do them all and not be afraid and sissy out, oh no wait not let you limitation stop you. :rofl:
