When I bought my 2022 F-150 XLT with 4WD and the locking rear differential I was not knowledgeable about how Ford approached four wheel drive vehicles. I have owned 4WD vehicles from Willy, Suzuki, GM, and Chevy. They all had a two-speed transfer case. It came as a surprise that Ford cheats its customers by not providing this on 99% of their 4WD vehicles.
To get the two speed or "HiLock" transfer case with Ford there are two options. Buy a Raptor for $80,100 or buy a Tremor with the $11,710 equipment package that includes the 402A transfer case and spend $79,725.
With GM/Chevy there is the X31 Off-road Package (or Z71 with Chevy) that provides a off-road suspension, hill descent control, skid plates, heavy duty air filter, trailing package, locking differential, and the 2-speed Automatic Transfer Case. This package adds $945 to the MSRP for a Chevy Silverado as compared to $11,710 with the Ford F-150.
A Silverado 1500 WT model can be purchased with the true off-road package and equipment at a MSRP of $44,880 that has the same capabilities as a Ford truck costing $36,000 more. One can choose to tweak the suspension with aftermarket parts but it is quite expensive by a Ford truck without the 2-speed transfer case and add it later.
The GM and Chevy trucks with this package also have is 36 gallon gas tanks as with the Raptor. The larger tank should be part of the off-road package but with Ford it is not even included with the tow package.
