    The longest I have ever kept a new vehicle stock was two weeks... And that was just because they messed shipping up on my new wheels and tires lol

    Good news is with the raptor, the factory equipped tires/wheels command a pretty penny and nicely offsets the cost of new shoes.

    I'd probably keep my screw and go with a scab if I decided to get a Gen2...Though I like the look of the Gen 1 Scab and and the look of the Gen2 Screw. I've toyed with the idea of going back to stock on mine and picking up a gen1 scab, and moving the mods over - only a couple of things wouldn't transfer over easily, the rest, as it stands now, would be cake.

    My two big dogs fit waaay better in the screw than they did in the scab.

    They're on the juice. And will take your toes clean off if you so even look at my truck. I'll hit an old man in public.

    That is, I think, what most buyers do and that's the main reason why the Screw outsells the Scab by a huge margin

    I'm a Scab guy for looks mainly. I have 6 dogs and there's no way in Hell they're riding in my new truck (or my '10) we have 2 vehicles set up for dawgs.

    Whenever we head out to the wild, we take a big ass telescope with us, because I'm basically a nerd. It has to stay out of the elements, so it's a SCREW for me.

    Another point in the SCREW's favor is the crash worthiness is always better because of the B pillar support.

    I've seen roll-overs on both, and they both absorb quite an impact, nerd. :doublepeace:

    SCAB for life. The shorter wheelbase alone in an off road truck needs no more explanation.

    Plus, it gives the mall crawlers something to pick at.
