If you really play with your toys they will break at some point. When they do, if you have another vehicle, you have options. Jeep all the way is my opinion.

Definately get the Jeep or something else to flog. You will have exponentially more fun with a dedicated off road rig that you don't have to drive to work the next day. Jeep plus trailer=fun. Nice comfy ride home in the Ford pulling the trailer, no brainer in my book.

Brenthel might make a LT for your truck. Or H-M. It's still pretty new so the aftermarket for a mid ir long travel is small. Personally, I'd buy a Ranger, get a Dixon Bros LT or get ahold of BTF and have them do it. Ranger parts are cheap, there's plenty of after market, good on gas, and light. And, if you hit something or break it, you won't be kicking yourself in the *** for ruining a brand new truck.

You can pick broncos up for pretty cheap and the good Thing about them... There 100 million f150s out there with the same parts. My bronco I have right at 4k in it I don't like how squirrelly it is over 70 but just using it for a toy it's pretty good.

Well whatever you decide, don't use that $10K and buy Facebook stock! Lol...

I've had a lifted jeep wrangler as a daily driver before, it's not fun. Buy the jeep and tow it to the trail with the f150.

Get the Jeep. I have one and it far exceeds the Ford for Off Road. Besides keep your daily driver a driver, and the off road and off road. Way more fun that way.

I also don't worry about scratching the Jeep due to it being my hunting and fishing vehicle as well.
