  • The 2019 Ford Raptor is here and some changes have been made. This Raptor is finished in the new for 2019 Velocity blue. Under the sheet metal is an all new Fox Racing suspension package. Find out if Ford listened to Raptor enthusiasts and made the right decisions.

    I think the 17 raptor was nearly perfect with not much if anything needing to be changed. I think the fact that Ford still made an effort to improve on the raptor shows that they really listen and care about giving consumers the best of the best. Well done ford, and great review

      Raiti's Rides one cool thing you didnt mention is that now the base raptor comes with the sync3 center screen instead of the puny 4” screen you used to get. Not a bad deal 57k if you can live with not having luxury stuff like heated/cooled seats, dual climate control, and adaptive cruise control.

    Loved the 2018 Raptor and 2019 continues that same excitement. To those complaining of no V8 I hear you and thought the same until I did an honest test back to back test drives. I elected to go V6 in 2018 KR and never miss the performance from my past V8. V6 torque is amazing while getting great ⛽️ cost averaging 19 mpg and better. Thanks for doing the video and showing what has not changed, still those Fox shocks are beasts.

    Even though it’s the same as 2017 and 2018 , same design, same, look, same performance, but the suspension is on another level, this truck defies off-road truck, a class on its own, yes expensive but it’s worth buying it, and why people are sad that the truck hasn’t a V8, The V6 it’s has its strong and makes the truck fast, let alone a V8, I have an idea for ford, they design a new engine, A V8 ecoboost
    People to this day (non ford guy) say it’s bad, it’s expensive, it has a v6, they are just jealous because this truck is the best

    Had a 2015 Silverado Ltz 4 wheel drive v 8 that I beat up consistently on 65 miles of beach while surf fishing padre island. I loved the truck, but it does not even come close to the 2018 Raptor I traded it in for. It is the smoothest ride on any surface. After driving through very rough terrain and faster than I was ever able to in the v8, I would still have live bait in my bucket. Lol. I was skeptical about the v6 but combined with all the other special features of the raptor-performance and look-I have absolutely nothing to complain about. Great review bro, made me love my 18 even more.

    The improvements are nice, but they've also taken things away. I love Ford but they do some really annoying things with small things to save a couple of bucks. I thought they would bring back ambient lighting with the number of complaints I've seen on this. You can't get that on any F-150 at any price, but you can get it on the Ranger, go figure. At this price point, Multi Contour seats should be available. They also got rid of the moonroof on the SCAB. A factory fog light kit would also be nice to see. Overall, I'm glad I bought an 18.

    Yeah........sorry, but I just can't wrap my head around the fact that this truck is powered by a V6. Turbo or not, it still sounds like a 6. I would much rather have a V8..... Thanks for the video Joe ! Still a nice looking truck !

      @@mr.roush6709 I don't think that we are going to see a V8 for a raptor anymore. The V6 Eco boost has more horse power, more torque better fuel economy and lighter. Change that for sound doesn't make any sense. It's hard to say this but the future are turbo cars and electric cars.

      RTechStop 2 no one cares about fuel mileage on a Raptor. And a 5 litre with a supercharger would put out much more hp.

    I love my 2019 raptor. I kinda wish I was more patient and got the blue. The v6 sound isn’t the best. After I put in the borla atak I hope to fix that somewhat. Unfortunately it’ll never have that deep v8 rumble but it’s much more capable than just about any factory v8.
