Ford is so stupid to put a V-6 in a ford raptor, they should have left it alone.
Ryan Shepherd what?
Buck's Shots lol ikr
I would of rather seen a 6.2 v8 again or a supercharged 5.0 at least. Like the Shelby f-150 with a 5L supercharger is pushing 700-750hp.
Kyle Fitzgerald yeah a supercharged 5.0L V8 with 560hp and 640lb-ft of torque
darion ross Better then an ecoboost
I love the look and design of the new raptors and everything about them except for the fact that they come with the eco-boost. They should've came optional with the V-8
but the 6.2 and 5.0 are slower and have les hp
@timmeh-fr5db Because they are N/A, once you give them forced induction them they become insanely powerful. Look at the Baja 700 and the regular Shelby raptor already making above 500 hp. And if you twin turbo charge it, it would probably make even more. The only reason why the v6 is so powerful is because it relies on forced induction, take that away or give it to a bigger engine and that power gets taken away.
who cares if it is turbo charged I want fast
@@timmeh-fr5db Yeah, but my point is is the V6 is only compensation is the turbo to make it powerful vs the V8 which doesn't needto compensate for anything and when using forced induction it'll go to the moon.
The new one sounds like it's farting💨
Jake The Dog I hope it wasn't eating bean burritos for breakfast. 🌯😷
*Then why don't you Buy a SC Roush F-150?*
*Because you've got MORE MOUTH than BRAINS*
They should TT the coyote 5.0 motor. That would be a beast even on 7PSI of boost.
Just Love my 2017 Raptor - 3 weeks old to me Today!!!
joey b let's see a video then!
joey b whats it govrnd at 100 like most American cars? such a thrill
John Gaudet With those tires, you're going to need to be awful brave at those speeds....
is it quiet on the inside? how about ride quality?
How much mark up?
Wow, I am fast.
I still love how the V8 sounds. My friend took his Raptor to Roush. Now it makes around 590 HP & 590 LB's to torque, he's not too worried about the new Raptors... :)
Yours is also 700lbs heavier, Roman.
not to mention the new one was the lightest version available versus the heaviest possible configuration for the old one.
I caught onto that as well. Not sure how long they can play v6 games with me, the 44 year old. Add a 5 mile run and watch the v8 low rpm right by that dying v6. This must be city sales..not a real offroad.
+Jake YBB the truck is not actually lighter they add the weight in other other areas saving it in the body. Think about the added wiring, cameras, ten speed transmission, larger shocks, longer control arms, more travel the list goes on that's all weight. All tho it's cool to hear aluminum body that's there sale hype, like rams hemi, gm's claimed vette 6.2l motor in a half ton.
He did say nothing was the same but the tires and the name..
Troy Strain supercharger on Romans truck will solve all that weight deficit in a jiffy.
Why is everyone so obsessed with the "sound" come on people get over it. This truck just went 0-60 in 6.1 seconds a mile above sea lvl and y'all are bitching about sound.
FOCO AZ Doesn't matter which raptor you choose or either F150 because they're all overpriced just like any other modern vehicle you see on the road today and they're made out of plastic just like any other modern vehicle as well.
CJ Colvin So I guess we will wave to you on your bicycle as we pass.
Jason Cecchettini I guess so.
Jason Cecchettini Have fun you're overpriced vehicle while I'll be smiling driving my 96 F150.
CJ Colvin youll be smilling but people around you will be laughing lol
Those of you hating the truck simply because of the sound.... Seriously? Can y'all actually see the video? Because I think you can't see the video. You know the one that sounds like a V6 wins, right? And it's not even close. Not at any point.
It must be hard living the way you do.
prometheusfallen keep in mind turbo v6s can sound good. maybe just not from the factory
Everytime you drive it all you'll hear is sound effects from the fast and furious
Sounds like your the getting offended where is your 2017 raptor?? Have fun living upset because not everyone is not going to like your same desires.
BeanerMan3k This is the second dumbest post here.
eric rush *you're
Also, I'm far from offended. I just don't get hung up on superficial, insignificant things like "sound". Show me the power. I couldn't care less about the sound. Additionally, your comment is the first dumbest. Congratulations.
omg i love the sound of the old raptor
Drag Race the new Raptor Vs a new 6.2 GM truck
Ron DS true
I did... Today. It was ugly for the GM. VERY ugly.
GM has no sports truck, so there is nothing to compare too yet.
Will do. Please stay tuned.
Ron DS agreed the 6.2 gmc is a power house. Especially when you throw a supercharger on it!
I think a cut-off bicycle inner tube squeezed over a Civic's fart-can sounds better than that Ecoboost. You should be fined for indecent exposure revving that in public.
2014 gets my vote.
Mopar Magic Hypothetical question. if you were deaf, Which one would you get?
nolanbrewski Well I would get the 6.2 of course! Most people aren't deaf so I wouldn't want them hearing my Ecoboost. It's the more considerate thing to do.
Mopar Magic I drive a 2014 Ford f150 Ecoboost and I will admit , when it was stock it sounded worse then a car.. threw in a cold air intake, blowout valve, and a new exhaust and that shit humss
Anthony McNee I do like turbo noises! Maybe if they tuned it to pop and crackle like the Focus RS I would start to appreciate the sound more.
Mopar Magic Yep that actually and literally made me LOL!
That 2017 sounds like shit.
They designed the exhaust note to describe the brand as a whole. When hicks floor it in the city (since, let's face it, 99% of people who buy these don't even see gravel roads) it screams SHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHITSHIT
VaporheadATC it sounds like a those mini race car behind
The people who hear it are behind you. The fastest pickup these guys have ever tested!
VaporheadATC it's quick but I agree
does this truck not have a radio..?
My screen is broken, I only have sound. Lawnmowers have come a long way! How could one beat a Raptor?
I don't care if it sounds like the meowing of newborn kittens, gimme that torque!
With performance, that a V8 cant match
Ivan Matz I think I blew a speaker on my headset after listening to that ecoboost. xD
tommy hammond
Thats it, it sounds great
Ponygt 662 Look man I'm not saying this because I'm a chevy guy but it's a known fact GM and Chrysler have been kicking fords 🐴ss with reliability in their trucks throughout the entire 20th century. I wouldn't doubt that the idea of a v6 in the f150 would sooner or later crash.
I have a 2013 f150 ecoboost and I love it nothing better than hearing some boost in the morning and picking on some hemi's.
I'm not a huge Ford fan, but it seems like they took one of the huge reasons to buy a raptor and threw it out the window. Part of the cool factor of the raptor was the loud 6.2. Now, just a glorified Ecoboost.
U obviously dont kno anything
Alright ponyboy if you have something logical to say then go right ahead, otherwise, make like a tree.
*The Arctic set another Record for Low Winter Time Ice*
*Ford is trying to Stop That*
The 2020 SHOULD have the 7.3 V8 as an option atleast. Id say a supercharged version of it would be the shit in a truck
2017 sounds like a commercial lawn mower
naw my lawn mower sounds better than that. It's electric
So what?
*You don't have the slightest idea what Ecoboost Technology even is.*
That a lawnmower just beat the trusty V8
Cesar Moreno
Yes, even Fords lawn mover is enuf to beat big V8s
I think the new Raptor looks AMAZING!! It is well equipped and has more power. My only beef with the new Raptor and I think that Ford really messed up here is the V6. Most people don't buy a truck because they really want fuel economy. They buy a truck because the bed is really convenient to toss things, they tow or they go off roading or maybe live in an area where it's more dependable due to inclement weather but they buy a Raptor becsuse it does all of those things plus goes fast and sounds great the V8 in the Raptor sounds like a demon being born in the tail pipe. The turbo charged eco boost V6 just sounds like a pissed off weedeater and it sounded so terrible they had to enhance it with artificial sound that comes through the stereo. What Ford should have done was put the same flat plane V8 that they put in the GT350 then they would have built an absolute flawless truck that's a true successor to the old model.
To all of you who don't understand why people are bitching about sound, how often are you going to go flat out in the truck? Once a month, maybe once a week and that's about it, you cant really use it to its full capabilities. However, you will be hearing the engine note ALL THE TIME, part of what makes a car fun and exciting to drive is the engine note. I'd rather have something that is slower but sounds great rather then something that is much faster but sterile and doesnt feel fast. I'm all about having fun, not about going to jail
50 seconds in tells which one I want. idc how fast the v6 is
The new raptor sounds like a Japanese economy car.
So what, Japanese economy cars r what U Americans buy more than American cars, they are more reliable, more value fetching too,
So Ford responded for market demand, no wonder F series is gaining so much popularity despite having over 60% of its sales in turbo form
Ponygt 662 When Ford is switching 90% of their cars to turbo 4 cylinder or turbo 6 cylinder, of course they will make up most of the sales.
Japanese cars aren't more reliable. That's a baseless myth that everyone claims, but nobody proves.
Ponygt 662 American cars weren't unreliable to begin with. In the 1980's, there was a very shitty set of circumstances (fuel crisis, economic crisis, insurance crisis) that forced the big three to start making crappy cars, or go bankrupt, but that was only in the '80's. I've owned, and still do own, American vehicles made between the years of 1967-2005, and I haven't had any real issues with a single one of them.
It stands to be said that I actually PREFER old cars (1967-1974) for their simplicity, reliability, and style.
Ponygt 662 American cars, before the 1980's, hardly had any electronics. The only electronics you would have found, were the light bulbs, the ignition, and the radio.
Most American cars were built so solidly back then, that even the DASHBOARD was made of steel.
NovaMan 350
I am talkin about the cars from the 90s to the early 2000s era, lets forget the before 80s as its irrelevant
I think the new Raptor sounds great. You can't even hear the V8 in this video it's so quiet. A friend had the old Raptor and I thought it sounded like every other truck you buy from the dealership.
Still love the sound of the 6.2L over the new 3.5L Ecoboost.
No doubt the Ecoboost is quick. I wonder about long term reliability though. My last 5.4 F-150 had 325K miles and was still running strong when I got t-boned by a redlight runner. Do you think a high revving turbo'd V6 will be able to log those kind of miles?
Haywood Jablomi I'm thinking of the same thing. I have a 96 F150 with a 5.0L (302) Windsor V8 with 203,508 miles on it and it's still going strong. The only thing I replaced on my truck was the starter but other than that mostly was just simple maintenance and cleaned out the transmission fluid just to get rid of the shuttering it was making and it hasn't had a problem ever since. Folks in they're Ecoboost F150's can call me a Redneck or a HillBilly but my 96 F150 will definitely outlast the Ecoboost with no problem.
Haywood Jablomi Long term reliability is a non-issue. The 3.5 has been around for 8 years.
The Prepper I know man and a lot of these Modern car lovers don't get it why because they're haters.
900k miles on a 99 Cummins (highly doubt it)? how many VP44s and lift pumps had that farmer gone through? VP44 goes out on them every 150k to 200k. Cost is ~$1500 DIY or ~$2-3k with a shop. One can go on ebay and get a complete good used Ecoboost engine for less than $2k, some with transmission!
***** Plenty of high mileage 12V 5.9 out there with no major repair, yes. All the 24V 5.9 have to deal with VP44, and if you think it's not expensive, you don't own one yet. I didn't mention the 98,99, 00 cracked block yet..did I? I've own a lot of diesel pickups/cars from all 3 domestic and exports. What have you owned? Most new Cummins that could last over 150k miles without any costly repaired are "emission deleted engine".
Your farmer must be the biggest liar to run the original VP44 on his 99 24V Cummins for 900k miles, or you are.
You definitely sound like a person that has no clue about automotive design. Twin turbos design is to reduce turbo lag. Ford is not the only one that use that design. GM, VW, Merc, Honda, Nissan, Toyota.. all do it. Now if FCA got the ability to make a decent engine, they may too.
There is nothing more efficient about using a single big turbo vs twin turbos. When FCA can directly compete with Ford, without buying engines and transmission from third party, like GM made all of theirs, then we can start talking. But first, they need to get off being from the bottom of the reliability list:
www.autoblog.com/photos/consumer-reports-least-reliable-brands/#slide-3671800
I will take ole Blue!
It's started! Can't wait to see an off-road mashup between these two!
I love how this is a comparison of two different trucks. Extended cab vs a Crew cab.l, completely fair comparison.
The amount of gas or the weight of the driver can have more of an impact in this comparison lol
Can we get a TT coyote yet?
Can all of the V6 haters shut up now?
Evan Hasson it sounds like shit you don't buy a raptor for a daily driver you buy a raptor for the experience and if rather it sound like a monster and preform a little worse than for it to sound like a weed eater
+tyler jessup ha weed eater that's funny. Pull that pile and do rebuilds on it in 15yrs as apposed to a hemi or gm good luck on that. Ford is not in your best interest in a long term. Every truck does the same shit. Manufactures build the parts for the big three. Even in the reviews they claim gm had a hand in there ten speed. Wow it's the fastest 0-60 neet my Silverado gets into the 6-7 at 0-60 range for an extra 40k and I'm not brand loyal altho I think gm Chrysler Toyota Nissan etc are better long term vehicles and people who like to perform there own repairs. It's not a matter of affording one what person wants to dump 60-80k on that stuff. Think the average audience are not at a dr's wage, I would assume. It's all financing a lot of the time, car loans stretching to 6-7 yrs because average consumer cannot afford this there is actually a real problem here with these auto manufactures prices. Tfl and every other one of these shows that test vehicles support this economic Crisis.
No.....it sucks
this new V6 for pussies - after 50K 3.5 turbocharged will be pure trash, very pity that new fords are not trucks, but just expensive toys.
nope
You should head up the new Raptor Vs the 04 Lightning
Not the normal V8 sound, But you have to love the POWER difference!
I’m getting a 2013 ford raptor 6.2 V8 😈
My god the new raptors look amazing with unbelievable power!! I just can't get my head around that v6 tho :( the only thing holding this beast back would be that horrible exhaust tone... thank god dodge and chevy still make tradition pushrod v8s!
Just bought a 2012 ford raptor about 4 hours ago and I freeken love it ! I don’t care about the speed because I a have a corvette for speed but the first Gen raptor is my favorite
Worth every penny
Hello TFL, I have a question for you.
Is brake torquing really fair? I mean, I understand you're testing maximum acceleration off-the-line, but by brake torquing, all you're doing giving the turbos an unfair head start. Also, knowing how quickly a turbo spools up is really even more important than knowing their fastest possible acceleration. Turbocharging is not all just about gobs of low-end torque on paper, lag is a turbocharger's biggest disadvantage, and in day to day driving, you're going to have to live that. Unless people want to replace transmissions as often as they do brakes and brakes as often as they do oil, people aren't going to brake torque or power brake on a regular basis. I think you guys could come up with more realistic acceleration testing, but this is all just my opinion.
Chris C ok so say your drag racing for $5000 your not gonna brake torque to build boost or have a 2step. come on it's a drag race
People do not drag race day in and day out. Follow what you're replying to before replying.
+Southern Nevada offroading and back country Again, drag racing is not something you do every single day. When an is engine turbocharged, even if it has all the boost and torque on earth, knowing how much lag there is and where the boost threshold is can be even more important. I don't how many times I've switched back and forth between vehicles with heavily boosted, but laggy turbocharged engines, even if it were moderately laggy, and big, powerful normally aspirated engines with immediate throttle response and thought to myself how much better it was in most driving conditions.
Given the fact they are small turbos and make peak torque at 2500rpm lets me know that the turbo lag is negligible if it exists at all. It’s not the 80s anymore technology has advanced
You have to wait until the Colorado ZR2 comes out before your big off-road review! That has front and rear locking diffs with a diesel engine for gobs of torque!!
That would be a long wait as the truck does not come out until at least this summer..or even later.
The Fast Lane Truck Oh I thought they announced it for Spring of 2017.
Mario Hermida Yeah, when the ZR2 comes out, they should take them down to the Baja and race them since that's what the Raptor's for.
***** Front locker on the raptor? No. Is it better at dune running? Yeah probably. But is it a better all around off-roader? Probably not.
Bronco is coming baby, sorry Chevy is outclassed in 4x4 battle, but in Camaro battle Ford is in the back foot right now
We all knew the answer before we got here, but we just love Raptors so much we watched anyway
people who complain about the new Raptor is because is better than what they are driving
crazy wheel this is the most realistic thing I have ever heard
Right! I love my ecoboost f150. The thing will smoke any other stock truck on the road. It doesn't sound great but I hardly care when I average 19 mpg and fly by anything else on the road that isnt a sports car.
That v8 sounds 10 times better!
put it against a TRD supercharged tundra
I spot the 2017 duramax dually... Can't wait for all the IKE testing on the hd trucks!
Love to have seen more of a comparison like MPG, cabin noise, track width, weight and more side by side comparisons. of suspension , etc. Thanks for the video.
Why not supercharged v8 6.2?
orlando arreola or turbocharged v8?
Correct with a turbocharger sure to exceed the v6 3.5 turbocharged in hp and torque
New 4x4 silverdo
Those go carts sound better then the 2017 raptor.
I'm a V8 guy from way back, and still am. I love the Coyote, and the Voodoo! But the Ecoboost all the way from the 1.0L to the 3.5L is one hell of a great series of engines!!! Example: the GT one another 24 hour race this last weekend!!! GO FORD!!!
Looking forward to the off-road review. Sweet!
I love everything about the new raptor besides the engine! I mean if they were really concerned with speed give us the 5.0 turbo charged!!!!
It’s not just speed. It’s low end torque as well. Which is higher in the ecoboost
My dad is a die hard Ford guy, has been forever. If he hears an ecoboost truck go by he just mocks the sound and goes all to hell like hes personally been hurt by Ford LOL. I know they dont sound very good but the peformance is awesome. That said, they should have atleast offered the Coyote as a supercharged or even TT unit. Furthermore for the 2020s, they should have made the new 7.3 V8 an option. But ya, still dont know why they havent made an "Ecoboost 5.0"
@@DuoBart0n yes the TTV6 does have a lot of torque, but supercharge or turbo a 5.0 and you'll have even more. Plus the sound most people miss. Idk but something that looks AND performs like the Raptor should sound like a snarling beast lol
I mean it’s a 1/2 ton truck with fox suspension idk what sort of “performance” you are looking for.
@@willspicer3190 its pretty much impossible to make an ecoboost 5.0 and the 7.3 is not for speed, its for torque and they would probably have a hard time fitting it in the raptor
Ram Rebel TRX Concept vs Shelby F-150
I love the new raptor. the style,engine everything. I like how it's updated really well. I doubt I will every make enough to buy one :(
Can't wait for the Moab video
Put two turbos on the 6.2 v8 and it will eat your v6 17 for breakfast.
And yet...doesn't exist, sooooooo...??? You can ALWAYS say things like, "do xyz and you'll be it". You mean a built motor will outperform a stock? Well, DUH! I bet you could do xyz to a Coyote and I can do abc to the 3.5EB that will STILL put the smack down. I get your point...it would be fun but you can say just about the same thing about any engine. Bolt on enough aftermarket items and you can turn anything into a rocket.
Michael Godsey they actually do sell twin turbo kits for the 6.2 raptor.....
10 speed keeps v6 in power band all the times, but yeah a supercharged Boss will be a torque monster.
the old one sounds better, looks better, has a much more reliable drive train unlike that poor reliability disaster that is the eco boost series. ford messed up big time.
Ya maybe we can get ford to make there f150's like there piece of shit diesels. Have to remove the whole cab to get to anything is and always be a pos.
eric rush actually you dont have to remove the cab's on the 6.7 super duty "to get to anything" And you are also wrong on the quality of the powerstrokes, and ecoboost engines.
+Southern Nevada offroading and back country I worked in the dealer when the 7.3 phased out and the 6.0l came in and tell me about quality. 6.0l was option for cab off repair or pull the engine for headgaskets made the fighting easier. I left just before the 6.7's came out with the 6.4l tell me why ford diesel is not and international harvest? Maybe because they were good negative bud. 6.7's sounds better idk. Good luck
Justin Bouche totally true. But the skinny jean wearing beta males will disagree
Nucl3ar Family hahaha
Thanks for sharing this! So much fun to watch. Probably even more fun to race!
I LOVE THE RAPTOR AND YOUR VIDEOS..THAN KYOU
Cant beat the sound of a big ole v8
you know the V6 is faster I get that but you just don't get the sound the rumble from a V6! V6 sounds like a sewing machine revved up on high or the V8 you know that's a V8!
spackmaster Chavez Thank you!
I was worried they wouldn't some how get their favorite "ike gauntlet" term they love to beat to death in every video. Then I saw the sweatshirt and was relieved.
+Tye Barringer Ike Ike Ike Ike Ike Ike Ike and oh yeah Ike!
IMI is great to drift at during the week. It's just a bit skinny and if you go off the track, you get damage almost every time.
The 2014 sounds so much better though. Just go get a Hennesey VelociRaptor, then you can beat the V6
wonder how long that ecoboost shit engine will last
they sound pretty good in person. the audio picks up odd noises. nobody complains about the sound of a gtr. it sounds very similar and if blindfolded it would be hard to tell the difference.
I love this channel
I own a 6.2 Raptor Roush supercharged I would never buy the 2017 that exhaust sound is a total deal breaker...pout a V8 back in it Ford!!!
U dont even own a tri cycle
Ponygt 662 damn I'm busted your right I don't own a tricycle im broke as a joke and homeless...fucken Imbecile
*You must get 8 mpg City, and Fill Up 3x a week.*
Just because he added a Supercharger on doesn't mean his Fuel Economy will tank. That's not how Forced Induction works.
What he will see is probably lower MPG in towing than the Ecoboost V6, but this will largely depend on the type of loads one will be pulling.
Guess what that v6 raptor will shit on your little super charger
ain't no replacement for displacement...
SAVAGECUMMINS when talking engine from the factory yes turbo engine is the replacement for displacement. The argument, well hey you can just put turbos on the bigger engine and more horsepblah blah blah. That's not the point we are talking engine from the factory. the ecoboosts can't be beat!
SAVAGECUMMINS a JDM quote coming from a person who likes American engines. Also, Cummins are turbocharged, so wtf are you talking about?
DatBoi 7313 who cars where the quote came from and that I like American engines? and yes cummins are turbo charged but they are inline 6 diesels. total different ball game from a tt v6 and NA v8. so since you couldn't figure it out, I'm saying I'd prefer a v8 over a small v6 stressed to make the same numbers.
SAVAGECUMMINS oh I figured it out, I'm a mechanic for gods sake, I'm just saying it makes no sense coming from someone with that name.
Yeah turbos are the replacement.
I'm loving these mashups. Keep up the good work gentlemen!
Love the new Raptor
You buy the Raptor for what it does, not for what it sounds like, or for the number of cylinders
Awesome
They should at least put a turbocharged 5.0 in the new one
Why couldn't Ford make it a twin turbo V8 engine (for ex. a small displacement like a 4.0 liter twin turbo similar to AMG's Biturbo V8's) instead of a shitty V6?
This is the Carter not really shitty with how well it performs lol.
It's depressing without that lovely V8 roar, but power is power... But along came a Kenne Bell supercharger and the rest is history.
these trucks are awesome but I would hate to pay repairs down the road that's alot of expensive parts to go bad
The new one sounds horrible, like an import ricer...
New Raptor sounds like shit. I don't like V6s, never have, never will.
dobbins2550 what do you drive?, I'm sure is better than the Raptor
dobbins2550 I love 6 cylinder engines. Supras, GTR's Porsches have them and they are straight up beasts.
*WTF do you care? You don't have any Money anyway.*
dobbins2550 Maserati has a great sounding twin turbo v6. Well, great for an italian luxury sedan, not so great for an american truck but still immensely much better than ford...
*Jan 2017 Sales*
*3588 Camaro*
*5046 Mustang*
Can't wait for the Moab video, although we need a Jeep in there too!!!
Ecoboost sounds horrible, but it sure will fly! Can't wait to see the Moab tests! Keep up the great work!
Wow!! New raptor sounded like shit...don't know if I would be able to get over that sound if I had one
Sounds like rice. Why not super charge a V-8 like Americans do. Hell, even Toyota has supercharged their engines.
let me get this straight...you dislike the new truck only because of the sound? and you'd rather have an old and tired engine that can no longer keep up? enjoy choking on everyone else's dirt and smoke
wasn't that bad ,Roman. you were right behind him. for all the hype, the old girl kept up to the ricer.
your finish line is epic! right up there with yard of bricks!
Nothing beats the sound of a V8
Damn man. It's quick for a truck.
1:00 that's what a Raptor is supposed to sound like
i think its funny that on the Consumer side, we have been messing with turbos and adding superchargers to our cars for as long as i can remember, like in the early 2000's when those cars with a turbo would obliterate a Chevy Camaro or Ford Mustang, now the car companies are doing what i did in my friends garage back in 2000 putting a blower on a B16a1
The 2014 also has a winch. That's at least another 60 lbs of extra weight, not including the winch mount.
Nice video, that eco-boost is just sick!
That v8 still sound better helll yea 😍
What Ford really needs to look into is a small displacement V8. Something similar to the 3.4 V8 they used in the second-gen Taurus SHO's. Twin-turbo it like the Ecoboost, it'd get good economy because it's small displacement, it'd have the right exhaust note, and it'd make great power. It'd be a win-win for everyone!
thanks for the race. great to watch
As a former Ford Tech I can tell you the ecoboost is not something you want to own in a longevity test. The hopped up ecoboost is very fickle and not so fun to work on and WILL spend more time and money in the shop.
But if none of that matters to you and money isn't a problem then the choice is yours.
Me personally, a factory offered supercharger for the 6.2 is a better idea.
Every time I watch a Raptor video, Ford gets that much closer to taking my money. Must. Resist. Temptations.
I really like that Grey.
I want a new Raptor... what a bada** looking truck!
I love you guys and these videos and can't get enough!! Keep up the great work!!
Looked like Andre didn't even have the truck in "Sport" mode for the 0-60. I have a 2017 Raptor and saw that it was in "Normal."
can you guys test the Chevy Colorado zr2?
Hey Nathan here's another place you ram can't compete!
Colorado's high density altitude made this seem more one-sided than it would be in most of America.
Predictable as that was, I enjoyed it a lot. I know everyone hates the sound of the new Raptor because it's not a V8, but I like it a lot. Not better than the V8, but still a lot. I'd be more than happy with the new Raptor.
Oh wow I can't wait for the MOAB content!! you guys are great
