What was twice as funny was when you could see his reflection in the mirror of the truck while he was getting the one slo-mo pan shot, which made it obvious he was doing voice-over at that point. Then you could see his reflection in the nav screen at another point making it obvious he was talking on-camera about the symmetrical center stack.
So screw the ford GT huh? The GT, Raptor and Police Interceptor all share the same engine. The only difference in the engine is the cams an tunes. Now you seem to fail to realize boost is the replacement for displacement. That way you can still have power an fuel economy which everyone wants.
@@tmrdarkstar85 So the best option is buy the old Raptor with the 6.2 V8 and put twin turbos to put the little V6 to shame in the New Raptor. Problem Solved. If you want fuel economy don't buy a Raptor to begin with.
The new one is better in every single way except the fact that it has a v6. If they really wanted the new one to live up to the raptor name, should have made a twin turbo V8! How sick of a truck would that be!
@@alexbarn3841 no not correct. They have tried every engine. Even the v12s. And this year they have ran the fastest track records at every track with the turbo v6. Explain that...
Fun Fact about the Gauge Cluster for the first Gen Raptors: before you start the truck hold the okay button on the left of the steering wheel controls for 3-5 seconds and you enter "engineering mode". you can scroll through different options and one option is a digital Speedometer!!! so nice to have a digital speedo
the new raptor is crazy capable, but there's a reason Hennessy will now do a v8 swapped gen2 raptor. old raptor for sure, just supercharge it, long travel suspension, you're good to go.
@@basshead. no bro Ford GT Mustang has a v8 engine there is also a Shelby GT350 AND there is an EcoBoost Mustang and the brand new Shebly GT500 aslo the super snake all of em have v8 engines except that EcoBoost Mustang
Hey mike. Love the truck content. I would love to see a 2020 gmc 2500hd AT4 build. And maybe hear it more towards off-road with fatter tires out the smaller rims and leave the dirty ax as the more street version. If anything I’d love to hear your opinion on the new gmcs
You know Mike, this was a solid review/comparison. Voicing is good. Pacing is good. You point out interesting and relevant things. Camera work is exceptional. I’d love to see more of this type of content! Maybe you’ll carve into Doug’s demuros market 😎
4ft tall little person subscriber here. It’s an odd case being there’s way more tall people than dwarves like me but that tail gate on the new raptor would be a dream.
I just bought a 2012 Raptor with no miles on it and I love it wouldn’t get the Raptor with the eco boost. Little compartment holds your business cards 6.2 supercharged is insane
Livernois Performance does all kinds of awesome upgrades to that 6.2, including cams and superchargers. They sound MEAN with a set of cams and an exhaust!
Two beautiful trucks , but I’m old school and I like my old “ truck “ amenities . Butterfly windows , rubber flooring , manual hubs , single cab etc etc etc . Great video and thanks for sharing . Cheers
The only problem i remember about the old one is that the frame is easily bent off reading and hitting jumps so you need to find a way to reinforce the frame
@@dancarlos1216 same thing is happening with the zr2 now. Same issue the raptors were getting. People had more money than brains and jumped the hell out of it.
Nick Tholl I’ve jumped my first gen Raptor quite a few times and even hit bump stops once, key is making sure the truck jumps and lands evenly. You can’t just see a spot and jump the hell out of it. You have to run it a few times, hence why the big boy trucks use prerunners to get coordinates and key terrain areas.
Both trucks are awesome! I choose my 2020 gen2 and I love everything about it. I'm a Subaru technician so I've come up around turbo cars. Definitely enjoy my truck.
Well, I think that the "older" raptor is definitely the better one to keep, in fact it has the v8 in it. While yes, you can get the same amount of performance out of the v6 if you put a supercharger or turbo or whatever on the v8 you will get so much more out of it than possible in the v6.
Call me old fashioned, but all this technology takes away from the true driving experience. When i drive my 1972 chevelle its me and my big block 572 that is straight piped. Thats all you need
I know this is totally off topic. Just about the interior of your Raptor Mike. I love trucks as well. You know one truck I still like, the Nissan Frontier Pro X4. Basic, but functional. It's like going back into time. I believe your Duramax is a 2005. First year of the current generation Frontier. Just interesting as you say how interiors of trucks have evolved. Love the channel, love the new addition. 😃👌😃
I have a 2013 F150 FX4, had it since new. You're right with the sync, you have to push the screen kind of hard. Mine is also that way and has been that way since I purchased it.
I love everything about the new Raptor except the motor Why didn't Ford just throw a turbo or a procharger or a supercharger on the V8 it's a truck I don't want a V6 in my truck even if it's faster the exhaust note doesn't match the truck🤔🤨😖😔😢
The modification they would have to make to the truck would take away for what it was made for. Plus you would be adding another 10 to 15k to the price
Not to mention how you're at the mercy of all of that technology. If any piece of it goes wrong it could strand you or leave important functions of your truck inoperable. And that stuff is not cheap to replace.
Quite simply its Murica Vs No Murica. Also, I think every video should only be done in Helium. Strictly.
Look at Mike getting all cinematic with the camera shots. Now all we need are a couple Michael Bay explosions!!

The 6.2L V8 is the way to go!!! Screw the EcoBoost...👌
no full size truck should be using a v6.
That’s why he should get a H1 forget the raptor
With ecoboost you either get eco or boost depending on the vehicle.
So screw the ford GT huh? The GT, Raptor and Police Interceptor all share the same engine. The only difference in the engine is the cams an tunes. Now you seem to fail to realize boost is the replacement for displacement. That way you can still have power an fuel economy which everyone wants.

Manveer Singh lmfao it would get like 7 Miles to the gallon 😂
chris kary if it was run W.O.T all the time...
Would have been so sick but v6 engines put out the most power. Look at formula 1
@@stammergarage they dont use V6s because they make the most power, they use them because those are the rules of Formula 1

I will answer that V8 > V6
Nah boost >>
Or... performance > sound
Why does it matter if your getting better performance
@@dragonnight5555 the whole point of the truck, its a performance truck duh
Rumor around my local Ford dealerships is they will have a V8 option next year for the Raptor.
Was that a black 2500 hd In the Driveway in the back up camera???
ssshhhhh....
Yup
It's a high country
He did say he was gonna buy the new 2500
Yup
the new raptor is crazy capable, but there's a reason Hennessy will now do a v8 swapped gen2 raptor. old raptor for sure, just supercharge it, long travel suspension, you're good to go.
Hennessy also does eco boost Raptors. Some people just like the sound of a V8.
i like it! I've always wanted the "old" Raptor myself to be honest.
Mike, This video shows that you have come a long way. That was a great review and comparison with your own twist and view. Keep it up!
The old raptor actually has a V8....
Also best intro ever
the new one might be more tunable than the old one but the v8 is still better
A supercharger and a haltech or something similar will fix that
The Ford GT has the same engine.
basshead and the Ford gt is slow as shit compared to other super cars
The new one is better! Buy the new one!
@@basshead. no bro Ford GT Mustang has a v8 engine there is also a Shelby GT350 AND there is an EcoBoost Mustang and the brand new Shebly GT500 aslo the super snake all of em have v8 engines except that EcoBoost Mustang
I always enjoy your reviews, Mike. Very well done and well though out...you should do more of them!
Glad I got to see these videos before I buy a 2014 raptor, definately going for it
Get the old v8 with a 2019 front end conversion
James Bono in no way would this be possible
What the hell?
@@chevyfan029 I believe fiberwerx makes a fiberglass body kit front and rear
chevyfan029 nothing is impossible. i know somebody who did this with the newer tacoma. money talks.
Itd prob just be easier to swap the 6.2 v8 into the new one lol
My great uncle has a 2011 ford raptor with a whipple supercharger. That thing pulls!
One of the best comparisons out there on CZcams.
I liked this before the video even started. Then the helium intro was just the icing on the cake 😂
What no crappy sound clip of the EcoBoost

Probably one of your better reviews and vids. I have one of each. I love them both
Actually such a sick video. Definitely get the older v8 tho
Anyone else notice the midnight addition Silverado at 17:33?
kyle burrow haha you ruined tomorrow’s upload 😂
Edition
Sure did
Cant even spell edition

Can’t wait to see your bankruptcy video

Keep the older Raptor🙏👀💨💨💨
Keep the old one
Little square under the 12volt plug fits a dip can perfectly, I have an Ecoboost 2011 and I am enjoying it.
I absolutely love the "old" raptor. It's definitely a truck I plan on getting in the future
They should put the new 7.3 gas in the upcoming raptors
What wheels are on your truck and what were your old ones
The Duramax? Fuel Forged FF19 in 22x14 on a 375/55/22 Toyo open country M/T
Street Speed 717 yes thank you
Mike, you are the most entertaining dude on the Tube
You did a great job with this video dude

Get a new one and swap a mustang v8 into it then build the hell outta it
That wat to much work for a shitty ass ford sorry bro 😁😂
The 5.0 Coyote engine isn't designed for towing and low end torque so unless he plans on never pulling anything that would be stupid.
Douglas Forsyth you’re kidding right? The coyote is offered in the f150 and is used to tow.
@@paulchaffins2489 bro no wonder stangs are so slow
@@dfor you are joking right. 2018 F150 with 5.0L coyote can tow up to 12,500lbs
Nice job with the comparison. 👍
Damn Mike you have 849,200 subs! I think you definitely could hit a million subs this year 😎🤘🏻
I use that random black hole for business cards

There should be a part 2 of this , where you go on a test drive lol .. but that being said good job on the video !
Vette giveaway update?
Its a truck ! It's not supposed to be luxurious. For myself I would keep the older version.
If you want something that isnt luxurious and an off road beast, get a old Bronco
Both of these are luxury.
the little compartment under the 12v is where i let my blunts dry after i roll them 👍🏼🤙🏼

Keep up the good work👍🏽
Love the old one looks mean and sounds awesome... keep up the great videos...
Dougspeed 717
Buy the New one... Apart from the sound... The new one is better in every single way
efrain kennedy not reliability or durability, steel gen one with a 6.2 all the way
Awesome review!
Great video Mike.

I say buy the new gmc at4 I love that thing with the 6.2
Those are pretty sweet but don’t quite compare to a raptor
SS King you right but they a lot cheaper and to me look better just opinion
@@carsondinning4354 um they are not cheaper they accually cost more
LHFishing&more no they are cheaper, at4 starts at 50k, raptor starts at 52k
LHFishing&more the raptor that he is looking at is a lot more expensive than a at4 that raptor probably around 70,000
I use the small rectangle box in my 2013 F-150 for business cards since I work in construction. But I guess you can use it for situations haha
It is the perfect place for a gate remote

Does anyone here remember the hellcat? Or was that the during renaissance period
and doug demuro almost spun out with it and that was epic
@@munin9530 yeah lol
I do

I do have a truck. I am also a mechanic
Love your videos
Mike you’re a legend
The little hole is for cigarettes in our family lol
That's what I said lmao!
Aha word thats the smoke pack holder
I like the V8 version more than the V6 version even if it has turbos and in my opinion the 2014 Raptor looks better
Jaggsta exactly why the older model is a better choice idk why they though going V6 ecoboost was suck a good idea it ruined the truck
@@jeremiahramirez9897 a supercharged 6.2 would have been a great decision, instead of the turbo V6
Ricardo The PC Wizard exactly plus they sound better, im not a big ford guy but i would definitely own a 2014 Raptor with the 6.2L
100% agree
The eco boost is badass and very respectable.
Bro that intro made my day ahahaha💪💯
