okay what is the big deal about the Fx4 and Z71 both are good trucks, now what i do want to know is what the hell is the LS on the trucks and stuff, my s10 4x4 has everything a Zr2 has except finder flears and 3" left, so none of the Z71 thing makes a difference thats just a chevy signature thing they made to get rid of 4x4 stickers on ever 4wd truck, but yeah dont dis on the Fords iv seen them do better things than chevy and i also seen chevys do things, but yall are going to say chevy will bet ford every time because well most the time is because thats what u have or that you like chevy, but really it all depends on the driver, with tug of wars and mud bogging, i seen a F-250 diesel hooked up to a reg cab toyota 4x4 and the F-250 couldnt budge it, i am just making a point, if u dog on a truck long enough it will tear up no dought, but if u baby it it will do just fine
