the most insane vehicle i've driven

can't really say i've driven a tesla or a rari', but in the truck realm, this is absolutely by far the most insane thing you can buy that is mass produced by a mfer. 700hp. the acceleration is stupid quick. it's really easy to lose control and actually quite dangerous. i spun tires on the freeway while accelerating and made the rear end fishtail on an 80mph roll. just insane power. haven't taken it offroading yet but i'm actually kind of concerned aboutt that, it's a lot to control on the road...can't imagine off it with poor traction and bumps introduced into the mix.

That's a badass truck

Not a fan of that new look. The first one (svt raptor) looks a lot better but that's just my opinion.

i actually don't like the 1st gen too much, at least not the face, the rest looks great. this trumps gen1 and gen2 tho, better suspension and the engine power is not even close. it's instant and itt launches you back to your seat every time you tap the pedal semi firmly. i've driven it 1200 miles this weekend and i STILL get giddy about a hard acceleration haha.

the gen2 is still here tho, she'll be my daily for as long as i can stomach the insurance premiums on 2 raptors [IMG]https://em-content.zobj.net/source/apple/354/woozy-face_1f974.png[/IMG]

Well, to each their own i guess. We all know the potential of the new one but I just really love the rally/baja look of the first one and the huge v8 will always be a classic. But things are different now and there will come a time that ford will probably put a hybrid on these raptors. The 10-speed transmission is sweet tho and has paddle shifters.

This has a supercharged V8, it will be the last generation that Ford can put a V8 in it thanks to the silly EPA rules.

Can anyone explain the appeal of a pickup if you don't actually need one for work purposes?

Hauling around that big ass empty bed seems so...pointless.

looks like a ford to me .. electric or gas ?

I don't know old man, it looks pretty obvious to me it's a Ford by the giant FORD logo on the front of it.

If you want a car with fast acceleration and/or beast offroad capability, you can buy a brand new Tesla model 3/Y performance AND a Toyota 4runner/Tacoma with the TRD sport trim for less than the price of the 700HP raptor R. Or you could buy the 3 motor Cybertruck that is cheaper than this raptor, better offroad, and nearly a full second faster 0-60 at 2.7ish seconds.

that shit box is not better than a raptor offroad. and driving this truck is an actual experience, if you want to go down the value road, you could go faster for cheaper.

the sound alone turns heads, every single time. starting the truck makes a huge roar and i have yet to turn it on in a parking lot without seeing one head turn. no one turns their heads for teslas.

Which shitbox are you talking about? No doubt the craptor is a great offroad vehicle, but personally I'd much rather have a TRD pro 4runner or taco for less than half the price... they are phenomenal offroad, they are the most reliable vehicles on the road, and they hold their value so well that 5 years from now you can sell them for their original MSRP.

Anyway if what you care about is turning heads in parking lots, no doubt you have your priorities straight... that said do you seriously think that your raptor turns heads more than a cyber truck would?

every pic on social media ive seen about the cyber truck has negative comment sections lol. and i got my raptor bc i love everything about it, looks and sounds, the feel of driving it...and raptors have kept great resale value all things considered. this is also going to likely be the last v8 raptor. even ram got their v8 nerfed by the EPA, they're going twin turbo v6 next year for the trx.

supercharged v8>>>any electric car


the v8 is as american as war and rock n roll. it's the country's official sound of freedom.

The cybertruck is ugly af. And it looks like a pokemon.

If anything, even the rivian truck looks a million times better.

yeah i'm not a fan of tthe cybertruck design. the rivian looks decent but i have yet to drive one or see it up close in person. i do see quite a few rivian pickups in my neighborhod though.

Chewing probably drove that CT and it struggled to climb that snowy slippery slope due to his sheer weight.
