I saw a Raptor on the bridge heading into SF the other day. It's a very impressive vehicle. Love the more recessive FORD grille. Don't care for the decals, they are ugly and won't age well. BOY would this be a fun truck in the Texas desert. A monster truck that has a factory warranty. A much better value than the Mercedes G Wagon. You can crush a Prius with this beast. I don't know anyone who could actually use what this offers. It reminds me of that touching moment in Ford vs. Ferrari where Henry Ford 2 is in tears, wishing his grandfather could experience the Ford GT. I wish Henry Ford 2 could have experienced this Raptor truck, because it is truer to the original spirit of the founder, who wanted vehicles that were practical, and this truck can do almost anything; it can go into the roughest terrain, and carry useful loads. It's not a track focused toy for rich dilettantes, but an actual usable monster. Myself i think the Ranger Raptor is enough for any mortal, and this truck doesn't fit small parking spaces due to its width.
Zonk! Ventilated rear seats, massaging front seats, Pro-power onboard generator, front camera quick-connector for winch setup, winch, the NEW tailgait, Addictive Desert Design rear bumper with steps, optional front light-bar like Toyota Tundra. Always a great review job!
I’m curious if the 37” wheels on the 3.5 trucks will be the style of wheel seen on this R? Basically what they did in the previous version…or if this will be an R only wheel?
Again thanks Joe and Lori for this exciting segment..Ford once again waited and played cat and mouse with the Raptor/Raptor R and RAM TRX bowed out(i think..for now) to become King of the Mountain ⛰️ once again😊
It's not king until Ford puts a manual in that truck.I've tried the amazing A-10 and other modern and amazing automatics that are available today. Although they're good, nothing beats a manual. Period. As I heard regarding another vehicle- "I'm the mapping. I don't need the electronics. I know how to do it." While there are times and places where an automatic makes more sense, nothing beats rowing your own gears. Beautiful truck.
Great video! Raptors are incredible trucks. For my experience Fords are really reliable trucks. Unfortunately the markup will be insane. I wouldn't be surprised if $50k over. The current raptor it's been marked $20k in many dealers. At least in TX.
I love it! But, Ford. How do you justify a high end Raptor at over $100k when just a few years ago they ran for about $67k (2019)? Thanks as always Joe! Thank you for all that you and Lorie do.
@@The-fs5wn : It's the same suspension & interior you get in the regular Raptor. It's not far better. So the only thing you're getting for the extra $$$ is the engine. Though who wants a Raptor with the 3.5L with exhaust that sounds like a JDM car.
There's no reason for me to hate a Ford Raptor R; it is the master of the pickup world. Just add a brown interior, and it is perfect for me. Thank you Joe for the review. If I have the money I'll get it! 🥰😍🤩
Ford Australia are slowly bringing in factory f-150s but are yet to announce the raptor. Hopefully it's only a matter of time because this is probably one of the best vehicles. Let alone trucks. This would be an absolute beast on southeast Queensland beaches. Hook up a tri-axle Kedron and you are in heaven.
Wonder if they relocated the driving sensor from the bumper to the grill or not. Would keep it from ever having issues especially if trying to upgrade the bumper
Great review, good to see the same Raptor design for about 15 years running with no actual really relevant change other than more power and bigger screens, which could have also been done 15 years ago with turbos/supercharges and an iPad...
That would be a fun machine for anyone who can afford it. Suggested music to go with you in that truck: "Free For All" or "Cat Scratch Fever" by "Uncle Ted", and anything by Molly Hatchet. 😊
needs more power im running a 2016 with 832 to the wheel. I Love the Ford brand and service but ill need more power if im to get out of this current rig
I enjoy your reviews. However, no stockish truck Chevy, Dodge, or Ford!!! Is worth $100,000. No stockish Mustang,Corvette, whatever is worth $100,000. Period. Especially when wage, taxes, and inflation is at ridiculous levels. American people shouldn't have to be the last to receive aid from the U.S. Government. Americans shouldn't have to work to pay taxes, after taxes, after taxes. Period.
Over 100k 😬🤣 maybe I’ll afford one in the next 10yrs after it’s been through 4 different owners and well over 150 thousand miles 🤣
Trust me I know how you feel. These trucks are not cheap
Matthew 6:33 👍🏾
@@jariusspearAmen
That's my plan
Some dealers are seeking the 2023 model for up to 50k above the MSRP 🤑😵💀
Badass Raptor R
You better believe it

Yes, seeing these in person is very impressive!
Sadly it will never be seen again
Why would you want to go in a car spot ?I live in Australia and have the gen 2 and have no issues
My dad's cousin got one, so sick. Hearing that thing rip down the road at the family reunion was awesome. Still prefer the trx though, as a Mopar guy
The Raptor R prices are ridiculous. TRXs are definitely a better deal.
The King of Trucks now! Can’t wait for mine next year.
it's got teeth - tony
You got that right Tony
Hey, Joe I not really a Ford Guy, however the new mustang, the bronco and now this truck, wow I am impressed.!!!.
Ford is bringing the V8 power
Yo
You brother man!
Yes of course Joe 💪🏿
I like the way that you think!
Badd azz truck. Too bad Ford dropped the Torsen front differential
Zonk! Ventilated rear seats, massaging front seats, Pro-power onboard generator, front camera quick-connector for winch setup, winch, the NEW tailgait, Addictive Desert Design rear bumper with steps, optional front light-bar like Toyota Tundra. Always a great review job!
There's only one king Raiti...RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS
Shout out Lori...Great coverage/filming...lol.
She is the best in the BIZ!
Thank you!
And joe is at it again 👍.
Nice truck but these three letters are a problem ..TRX
I see what you did there!
Wow....amazing truck. A rich person's toy. I must keep buying Lotto tickets. USA. Thanks Joe and Lori.
You are so very welcome Mike! We appreciate your support!

Hey Joe!
What’s up??
@@RaitisRides nothing much you?
@@wwesupermiahroblox4460today I’m traveling fir a media event
Whoa it’s 5 o’clock already ! 🙃
Time flys when you are having fun
When you done filming catch a plane home so you don't get delayed flights on Detroit 💯
Again thanks Joe and Lori for this exciting segment..Ford once again waited and played cat and mouse with the Raptor/Raptor R and RAM TRX bowed out(i think..for now) to become King of the Mountain ⛰️ once again😊
I have a 2018 raptor. I really want the R. I don't need to test drive it as I already know I'm going to like it.

I like Ford , but I don't like Ford Raptor: I just love it, and I do!😍
Cool F150 Raptor R I feel like Ford dos a dandy of a job.
You better believe it Luis
@@RaitisRides While pricing Is still unknown I expect it would be More comparable to last hear.
When you do these reviews do you immediately turn to your wife and ask "Can I get one?".
Pretty much 😂
Lol

20k!!!! I’m in Cali!! I would get one at 20k markup! That’s not bad
I know it’s a small thing, but why can’t the Lugnuts on the tires match the rims?
Joe…it’s not worth the price at over 100k
I love it! But, Ford. How do you justify a high end Raptor at over $100k when just a few years ago they ran for about $67k (2019)? Thanks as always Joe! Thank you for all that you and Lorie do.
It’s a Raptor R with a supercharged V8. You’re thinking of the high output eco boost Raptor
It’s a vastly superior ride, way faster, far better interior, and has a boatload of actually useful features.

@@oneslackr compared to the 2019 Raptor it is.
@@The-fs5wn : True. I missed that the OP was comparing them to a second generation 2019.
I like this Ford Raptor R Joe you and Lori are the best of the best and of course Steven is great!
There's no reason for me to hate a Ford Raptor R; it is the master of the pickup world. Just add a brown interior, and it is perfect for me. Thank you Joe for the review. If I have the money I'll get it! 🥰😍🤩

Those graphics make it look like a lantern bug!
Is it me or does the redesigned front end look less aggressive!
Alright Joe let’s see what this F150 is all about
Heck yeah
Wonder if they relocated the driving sensor from the bumper to the grill or not. Would keep it from ever having issues especially if trying to upgrade the bumper
We just ordered one baby lets go
The ford Raptor is the king of SUVS good job Joe excellent work by Ford
Nice rear fender paint ! 4:57
Lori always do a fantastic job with the camera work ❤
I like the new Head up display.
They hit a home run with this one and that is the first graphics from Ford I actually like and are perfect on that white color body!
I hope the first drive is soon Joe 🤞
You are not alone with that thought Chris
Great review, good to see the same Raptor design for about 15 years running with no actual really relevant change other than more power and bigger screens, which could have also been done 15 years ago with turbos/supercharges and an iPad...
I like to buy trucks because I like paying $150 to fill it and run 8-10 miles per gallon!
my next year christmas gift raptor r my dream truck
I dare you go ON THROTTLE in there!!! lol
Joe Raiti is 6' tall, and that truck towers over him!!
Nice video keep up the good work Joe
That would be a fun machine for anyone who can afford it. Suggested music to go with you in that truck: "Free For All" or "Cat Scratch Fever" by "Uncle Ted", and anything by Molly Hatchet. 😊
Wow my dream truck im gonna buy it soon.
That is so fantastic!
well at least the whole back window in my tundra can go down!
Damn. Some kid will grow up and his dad and mom will be rippin this truck. … I better get started on those kids
I love that Ford did this, it's an amazing truck and very powerful!!
Nice video
When I turn into a pro boxer. I’ll work hard to afford this one day. Manifesting it now
That sounds like a plan!
Excellent video Joe!
There's absolutely no truck that's worth over 100k. Still a beauty though!!
Agreed
Awesome TRUCK... Thank you Joe! ☺️👍
Once the 2024 drops at Least the 2023 won’t be as expensive or it just
Might
Will they take my 2015 f150 with 300k miles as a trade in ? Zero down 200 dollar payments 😂
My zonk would be they didn’t put a flat bottom steering wheel
needs more power im running a 2016 with 832 to the wheel.
I Love the Ford brand and service but ill need more power if im to get out of this current rig
Why are generic brands charging luxury car prices? Over 100k? Are they insane? That's Porsche or Corvette money
Everything is getting pricey
Yes yes yes!! That truck is awesome! Have they leaked what the new horsepower rating will be?
Rumor is it’s 780HP.
720
A little disappointed you didn’t show the payload capacity.
I know you're still a die hard ICE guy but you should review more EV's!
ITS A FORD YA'LL CAN KEEP IT!!!
V8!!!
Great video as always...your humor is over the top! Any comments on ambient lighting?
I’m getting one…right after I find the extra cash…
Bright red orange hooks to pull the Ram TRX outta the mud😂
Does anybody know if 2024 raptor r have the 2kW Pro Power on Board? Or is the bed outlet just 400w?
This or a new 23 super duty platinum?
Joe keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
It doesn’t make sense at all to me that the truck was just released in 2023 and they’re doing a refresh for 2024⁉️ 🤔😟
After 15 years this truck MIGHT be 75k.......🤷♂️.....got a feeling these things are going to be shop queens.....who knows.....
I always like your reviews man keep it up
I think The RaptorR is definitely a vehicle to covet. But the price…😮
Hey Guys - what's Up?
Ill take a TRX instead in black please
I'd pay for it. Supercharged and super fun to drive.
I got the money for it as well since I don’t have kids or a wife but 150k is insane I’ll wait for a used one or something
@@davsquaredo79 An used one could be a very good option too.
Who's buying all these trucks that are over 100k, just sounds crazy pay that much.
is the raptor r using a blown version of godzilla or is it bespoke
With dealer mark up…. $182,000 😂😂
Saw one at thr dealership for $186k!!! Fking insane. 😡. $75 markup. No bedliner. No thanks
I smile ear to ear every day I push the Start button on my New Raptor. All I see is everyone in my rear view mirror ✌🏻
747 hp to honor the delta jets
150000 box ,have way to get a 2 bedroom house 😊
Any stickers for sale saying "twinkie compartment"
Over hyped 😂
A 5 finger discount in Detroit? I'm shocked. Awesome truck. I'll bet most who buy this will take it off road.
Wow 😯 beautiful supercharged ❤
Who tf designed the head and taillights? 😣😣

Sounds like you need a Snickers.
This version lacks heated/ventilated seats, hybrid power considering the price.
What are you talking about? Raptors have heated & ventilated seats. So does this '24 model & he even mentions it right here 7:34
I love what Ford has been doing lately
What do you like? Ford is lame
Yeah, I really like this one!
King of the full-size truck, period.
I'm a short guy with limited mobility so I'd never be able to climb into this truck. Thanks for showing it to me, Joe and Lori.
I appreciate you tuning in no matter what!
