    I still don’t understand how people still prefer the TRX over this. I drove one of these 2 days ago and it was the best experience I’ve ever had in my life. Better than sex 😂. This is the best truck ever made 100%

      If they were no more than 5-10 k than the TRX it would be a different story

    At 50 to 70,000 $ over MSRP the greedy dealers are charging in California, almost would be embarrassing having it known you let a dealer bend you over. No matter how much money you have.

  • @off-roadingcars
    @off-roadingcars Před 4 měsíci

    So if a person wants to use a Raptor as a daily driver because its so damn comfortable to drive (suspension + seats, etc), would you recommend the regular Raptor 37, with V-6? I’d rather daily drive that, than have a Raptor R that sits in the driveway and only comes out on weekends due to gas mileage. What do you think?

      Actually it gets great gas mileage, when you consider the performance, it's stellar. Tundras and QX80s get basically the same mileage, and they just putter along.

  • @twinturbo3470
    @twinturbo3470 Před 10 měsíci +6

    The problem with the Raptor R is that they made the chassis of the regular Raptor so good that there was little in the way of improvement that they could do. Maybe if they would have given it a hood scoop like the TRX and I different front and rear bumper for even better approach and departure
