Ford has said that Trail Turn Assist requires the Auto... but... who knows what will change between now and delivery (or even B&P).does it really give up trail turn assist?? if trail turn assists works as described in one of the videos, there's nothing that prevents the GOAT mode with turn assist enabled from turning off the rear locker and engaging the inside rear brake when full lock is achieved.
in the video, the vehicle is even a stick...
Trail Turn Assist is an Auto transmission only feature. Although, they might change their minds later, like they did with the Mansquatch.does it really give up trail turn assist?? if trail turn assists works as described in one of the videos, there's nothing that prevents the GOAT mode with turn assist enabled from turning off the rear locker and engaging the inside rear brake when full lock is achieved.

Laj.tuxmek(Miss ya friend)said that trail turn is available auto only because it would destroy the clutch.
I wonder why that would be? Unless you're riding the clutch pedal, I would think it would be fine. @Laj.tuxmek knew his shit though, so I don't doubt him.Laj.tuxmek(Miss ya friend)said that trail turn is available auto only because it would destroy the clutch.
Basically in order for it to work there has to be slippage in the system.... in an auto that’s in the torque converter. Manual... there goes your clutch lol.I wonder why that would be?

wouldn't you get slippage if you release the rear locker (same as the automatic)?Basically in order for it to work there has to be slippage in the system.... in an auto that’s in the torque converter. Manual... there goes your clutch lol.
I see where you're going with this. I've pondered this in relation to the lower trims having fewer goat modes.OK let me rephrase my question.
Is there any value in the GOAT modes with a Manual transmission?
