As some have said, that exhaust demo of quiet mode is insanely impressive.
You’ve got balls to drive like a $110,000 truck like you should with that kind of weather going on
It's a good thing for Ford.. shows how stable this can be in any condition.
Topher getting cocky a bit. That slide at beginning easily could have ended up in barrier.
@@roletnabih he corrected it like a boss though, average driver would've lost it
@@PistolTCG Any car with modern traction and stability control would behave the same.
No worries guys, he’s got to have a crap load of insurance coverage as a CZcams car reviewer.
The simplicity of the dash is easy on the eyes. This thing seems like a dream to drive.
My 72k raptor is literally the exact same except a few things like recaro’s, carbon ect. But 40k less I feel like there is much more value in the non R. (Besides re sale in the future)
@stephen lane Yours don't have the extra 250 horsepower. Power you definitely feel when behind the wheel.
@@roostercogburn7243 Sure, it has slightly more pick up. Not worth the 40k plus mark up lol
@stephen lane I agree. Sure would be nice to afford a 72k truck. What the monthly payment on that like $950? I'm a skilled laborer that wonders why I get up and go to work everyday. It getting old real fast giving everyone else every dime I earn.
@@roostercogburn7243 I put a good down a good amount when I purchased which help offset it a good bit. 15k from previous truck plus around 15k cash. Payment actually isn’t bad.
And when I turn around to sell the thing it’ll hold its value better than any then F150 4x over!
i couldn’t tell you why, but i’d take this over the TRX any day of the week. the interior and the styling just does it for me. an absolute dream
110k though I almost stopped watching after he said the price 😢
TRX is wayyyy better for what you get with your money. People are already selling their R’s and buying TRX’s instead. I still like the Raptor though.
@@gannethackett9323 Oh please, dealers sell them for close to the same price as the Raptor, give or take 10k
@@AudiRSAvant ☠️ not even close my family got ours for $98,000 while Raptor R’s are going as high as $160,000 and some dealerships are selling them even closer to $200,000 ☠️
@@AudiRSAvant
Dealers near me are selling the Ram TRX at MSRP which is mid 80k. Ford dealers are selling the Raptor R for $110k msrp + $20k dealer markup for a total of $130k. That’s almost a $50k difference my friend.
That was really fun to watch, I believe you pushed this truck real good, not to its limit but good enough for the crap weather.
8:00 you got serious balls driving a truck that isn't yours like that in icy weather! Couldn't be me! Great video
@Pioteko he didn’t know though. It’s not his car….
It’s probably a press car
@@andrewmooney2008 Yeah but it’s still not his…
What am I missing? Did he edit it out of the video?
@@xCaPz that or the time stamp was changed
Is it weird that the most impressive thing for me is the silent mode?... i mean, u said that it was really quiet but holy shit... that highway test was insane! it actually shuts off!
No! You’re not weird. I love it too
What a crazy truck! It's amazing they seemed to get it to be so split personality. Raw, playful and almost violent. Then change the settings and it becomes gentle and docile.
And I'm glad they didn't goof with the 'Raptor' logo. Coloring in the orange 'R' looks much better and not silly as if they added an extra 'R' to 'Raptor.'
This is the best review so far
Lmao the feet tap before hopping in car guy things
The best channel to watch while your ill
Seeing it go so sideways under the bridge at the beginning surprised me hahah, great one topher!
Love that Raptor. That interior and 37s are big in my books.
It would be interesting Tundra bring back the 5.7 with blower on top.
This truck and video are awesome! Thanks Topher. I will be able to buy one later this year after the stock I have pays off. Thanks!
Great review!!! Thanks
TheTopher >>>>>>>> anyone else that does car reviews on this universe.
Completely agree with what you said about the shifter! I drove the regular Raptor and was a massive disappointment with that new shifter. The foldable feature should be optional cause previous 2 gen Raptors shifters felt way better!
Column shifter would fix that problem and make the console more usable
I love this dual cab
Beast on the roads
watching this video to keep me motivated pursuing my electrical engineering degree to someday own this beast😭
Keep up the hard work and you’ll get there 💪🏽
Man. Ford is the best making trucks. Period. Whoever is their truck team better be paying them the $$$!!
My dream damn truck. My brother in law just got a new TRX he had the Raptor before. Told him if I could afford it I would do the Raptor R all day!!! Great Video showing mad skillz driving in that weather. Love It.
awesome
love how it can kick out that back end on demand
Borders on luxury vehicle? Naw bruh, it is a luxury vehicle.
I was always a fan of the Raptors.. but this one takes the cake. I like it more than the TRX. HEFTY price tag... but this one might actually be worth it.
Just make sure you get the R trim and not the lame V6
This might be the first time I’d say a push button shifter would be a better solution here. That would resolve the cheap feel and still give you the console flexibility. Ford probably skipped it due to the perception of button shifters in trucks.
They certainly didn’t hit their perception with the console shifter either.
@@cameronpeens881 typical poor Ford quality is still clearly perceived here lol
bonjour super 4x4 ce raptor r magnifique vidéo cordialement
Interesting red R logos. Wonder what inspired that?
I just want to know why you didn't enable the running lights
Hey man you reckon we could ever get a tour of your personal car collection?
I wished they did more on the outside, you compare a rebel to a trx and you don't have to know cars to understand there's a clear difference, but a regular raptor vs a raptor r I couldn't tell until I started watching detailed reviews
There is a much bigger difference between a Rebel and a TRX vs a Raptor and Raptor R. Take away the V8 and the R is the same truck.
R vs Raptor is the same except for badging, even interior wise. Might be missing something, but i've seen both side by side and had to look at the badging to see which one is which.
Hi, can I ask a question, does the Ranger Raptor have massive panoramic sunroof too? Thanks in advance!
That retracting shifter is cool but scary.. is it possible for it to malfunction and get stuck in the down position? That would certainly leave you stranded, if you can't use those button to shift out of park, if it gets stuck.
2:20 decent date night compromise if we can't have bench seats anymore lol
every pull "wuahaaaaahaaaa"
2:22 ah yes. "have my burger." of course. that's what i'd use the "make the obstructions between me and the passenger seat go away" button for.
What a machine!
I’ve never cared about fuel mileage on any vehicle, but man, single digits mpg on premium fuel gives me pause…. I know the truck is expensive to begin with but that’s going to sting every time you fill it up which will likely be more than once a week. Ouch.
I think if you can afford the 110k price tag plus dealer markups you can afford to put gas in it
Coulda swore this was a video about a 720 hp truck and not a prius
Still gota give it to the TRX. Trx has a better interior, more space, roughly same speed and power, and for 30k less in price.
I have a 17 Raptor but this one with that V8 is seriously the one.$$$$$????
7:48 ngl I was scared when he got that far sideways 🙈
Is it fine to switch the damper mode while driving ?
where would this sit on the cool wall?
The official truck of tattoo parlor owners.
I can't believe you drove like that in those conditions without traction control on.
Idk what it is maybe the tires or wheels but it loos funnier than normal
what the red blinking coming from the pillar and center dash?
I'm still impressed with how the trx keeps up with this considering its 500lbs heavier.
And can be bought for 30k less
TRX is still the king in my opinion!
@@DaRevrin you are never getting this for MSRP. So more like 50k less
TRX still looks and sounds better in my opinion plus i like my woman heavey...
35” tires on the TRX and a tad more torque
Doing THAT… in THAT $110k+ truck… in THAT weather… With 37” KO2’s…. 🤯
Anyone else want to see the truck in the background @ 1:00 in to be reviewed / test driven / first impressions or am I the only one?
Plzzzz review the Kia K9 hyundai
I still like the TRX more. Plus ram interiors are amazing. Also… you can actually get a TRX and you can get one without a massive mark up
dodge interiors give me aids it hurts my eyes
My dads 5.0 f150 spins 2nd easy I can’t imagine this thing tc off rwd
god stuff, but i still havent warmed up to that shifter, it takes so much space and looks artificial. i would take the column shifter over it, if that was available.
The Trx inside is so much nicer
how are you able to get this truck? I have been trying to buy it and can't find the v8 I want.
The 2010 6.2L Raptor was an upgrade and was $41k. 12 years later and roughly the same upgrade package over the base is almost 3x more. And you're simply not getting 3x the truck. They even weigh the same. I figured with the aluminum body and weight savings Ford has been flaunting for the past 7 years that their top tier performance model would have had significant weight savings. But no, they're the same weight with a whole Liter less of engine size, Plus the obvious supercharger.
Really hope they continue to make these for a while. Hopefully until 2030-2035+. It would spice up the pickup industry.
8:04 this dude don’t give a damn
New strap on the speedy
7:45 no way some poo didn’t come out
Quiero esta misma guagua. 🙏
This Raptor R is insanely quick but I have my eyes on the Ranger Raptor. Can you make a video and tell us more about this truck?
ranger raptors arent in ameirca
@@ryanfaubert2014 yes it is
You didn’t have to cut out the sliding on the on-ramp 😂
Ehh it was a little sketchy
@@TheTopher damn I wanted to see that lol
Everything is great, only the antenna-rod on the hood seems to have come from the 50s of the last century ...😆
2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R 75th Anniversary Edition SuperCrew Cab 4X4!
What are those two blinking red lights, on the door and the infotainment system?
They make sure you have your eyes on the road.
Infrared lights, not visible to the human eyes, but slightly visible to cameras.
Man, I think I made up my mind about selling my 2020 gt500 for this R.
That raptor is beautiful
@Brian Lee This is a V8 Raptor what are you talking about
is it 'boring' to drive on road? or does it still feel like you are driving a 'performance' vehicle?
Had the new v6 raptor. Sold it cause I couldn't take the sound anymore.
This truck feels like a lethal weapon like I can't believe its street legal doing a 0-60 in 4 seconds with 6000 pounds, you would turn pedestrians into paste if you made a mistake. I felt that way with your Toyota Corolla review too. I wonder if vehicles have gone too far tbh.
And a Rivian weighs 7200 lbs and does 0-60 in 3.2. Scary these huge beasts
@@dandroid761 how about the Hummer EV? 1000hp, 9000lbs…I’d be dead driving in my ND Miata and probably even my Mk5 GTI.
is fuel for free in USA?
Around the world is raining right now
I might consider giving it a test at Long-Lewis Ford Dealership right across from Hoover High School. Would love to get your take on residual value, annual estimate fuel cost, MPH, Horsepower, Mileage range, maintenance cost, State Farm auto insurance rate, property taxes, title fee, license plate fee, applicable fees, and how many %APR did you get with how much % down payment with how much are you paying a month in total? How much per month? Not looking for an all cash buy with, you 10% depreciate right off lot. I saw commercial for 0% APR $0 due at signing and $7,500 cash back. Just wonder what that’s about? In tax credit? Even tho it’s not an electric vehicle like the Rivian 🤔
An ad from CZcams TV. Maybe it was from WVTM-13 or Fox 6 WBRC local news viewed during the commercial break somewhere in the past 3 months or so of Fiscal 2023. Q1 Earnings reports for Ford Motor Corporation may be something I might consider, but may have to compare the 2023 edition of the Hoover Toyota Tundra as well. It seems a bit overpriced at $109,000 MSRP for that Ford F-150 Raptor, even considering all the option upgrade and pricing. What’s the Base MSRP? For that amount, I could cop any decent 2021-2022 edition of black BMW X/X6 or black Range Rover Sport all black interior and exterior
I prefer the ttV6- it’s a more “special” engine….before you start blabbin bout power figures, consider this- other than 2 years where the platinum or limited (whatever’s higher trim- I forget) had the 3.5HO, the ONLY other vehicle to share that engine is the Ford GT. No- the regular 3.5 is not close to the same. They share the same long block, but the crank/pistons/cams/rods etc on the 3.5HO are unique- all forged internals shared w/ the GT- super strong - & more importantly? Perfect to handle extra boost, a 93 octane tune + a HD intercooler = faster than the Raptor R & won’t break (the Supra of sport trucks)

ZACH SEAN
$ 110k, respect to Ford that they want so much money for this.
how do you get cars to review for free? if somebody wanted to get into this
As somebody who owns a TRX, I'd take this every day of the week. Hell, I miss my V6 Raptor. Dodge vs Ford, It's not even a competition.
Крутой канал 👍 такие ровные дороги, какая эта страна?
America
@@AnarchyAfterLyfe oh, thank you very much 👍
@@erekelife4334 no problem
Да и в правду дороги отличные
Штат Техас 😅 у него много интересных ревью на канале. Приятно и интересно смотреть
Alr 90K for that, YES. 110K, alr yeah no quiet that level of awesome
Not sure, where you been but a regular platinum is like 80k+
110k in this gets you very few options. The one this guy driving is probably 120+
Does “street” being in the title mean there’s going to be a track video?
Off-road I presume
god bless the full size pick up, may freedom prevail.
Rawrpter
TRX or Raptor R?
Raptor R due to looks
There’s an R on the front grill
Sheesh I’m still
Going with TRX but this raptor R is sick
Trx, 99% of owners don't offroad. And you can get the same quality of truck in a trx for 30k less.
I’m surprised that Ford actually got their truck back based on the way you drove it!! I think that the TRX sounds way better,has still the best looking interior and looks way more menacing…..I’ve had 2 generations of Raptors and would not trade my TRX for another Ford!!!
2:42 7:42 11:29 11:56
i wish they would put HUD on these...why so hit and miss on important safety feature
Ford employee whippin M-plates or?
Definitely not worth the price but a solid truck indeed
I hope Ford gives you a puppy When you purchase this truck. So when your broke down beside the road due to a coolant leak.. You will not have to walk home alone
I'm still taking the trx over this anyday
Those infrared blinking things are annoying as heck. Then again you won't see this IRL, only on camera.
Does this weight less than a trx?
Driving in pouring rain, dont care just floor it. I would be going trough gas like a mad man, cause i would want to stomp on that gas all the time.
Please 2013-16 f250
The sound on higher rpm is not pleasant, steering wonders on hard full, trx is sportier to drive trx interior is way superior
I can't wait to have a conversation with someone who's making payments on this truck. I'll bet you a burrito it takes them 2-3 years worth of salary to match the price tag on this thing.
Of course! 😄🤭
For me it's one year salary. But I certainly don't want those payments!
For some of us it’s a month’s income. Lots of very different people buy cool cars.
@@kensingh9527 Yeah no doubt. There's all kinds of income ranges out there. Clearly my comment wasn't geared towards someone with income like that.
@@ericd1632 I also wouldn't want those payments and wouldn't even want to make the down payment that would make the payments reasonable!! I like my savings account far more than the truck heh
