The look on your face when you went over the jump........PRICELESS
😀
As everyone is saying, this truck is awesome and everyone loves it, however, no one can afford it. Lol
Nobody can afford it except the people that can. Yes; it’s out of reach for most people; but this specific mode basically sells out
I haven't seen any for less than like $165k
Its insane how expensive truck shave gotten.
So a platinum f150 is 110k cnd plus! This is actually a good price for the upgrades you get .....definitely ridiculous but in today's world it's worth it
@@RoninX33not so insane to me when considering all the additional options and features available at the top end of the market. Have base truck prices risen faster than inflation? Maybe so but standard features and fuel efficiency have also improved as driven by regulations and market demand and those have a cost to them.
Going 75 on that dirt is wild.
Send it!
I went to my local Ford dealer to look at a Ranger Raptor. $20k markup on the Ranger and they had a Raptor R on the lot with a $40k markup and a Braptor with a $30k markup. I went to the Chevy dealer and bought a Colorado Bison for $2k UNDER sticker. Ford dealers are ridiculous!
The Chevy Colorado ZR2 Bison edition with all the offroad AEV goodies is literally the best deal out there for truly 4x4 overlanding-ready 4x4 trucks that can go on narrow trails.
Yea, but it’s a GM product 😢
Son just picked up a Ranger Raptor for MSRP. You just have to look
Supply & demand
Free-market price gouging at its finest.
The 2024 Raptor R is a beast.
Thanks for showing us about this! Not feasible for me but I enjoy learning about all new vehicles! You have a great job!
It's always amusing & rare to see Andre struggle to get his words out coherently!
To me it has to be impressive to affect Andre that much...LOL.
Full size trucks for the most part are no longer attainable by the average person. With monthly payments as much as a mortgage. The maintenance costs on these vehicles are insane. These videos are no longer useful for a person shopping, more like for entertainment purposes only.
You dont have to buy a raptor R for $120k. You could buy an XL supercrew 4x4 with a pretty stout motor(the 2.7L) for mid 40's.
The nouveau riche in Florida would disagree. Full sized 100,000 plus trucks are cheap!! Obviously ALL the Mc mansions belong to honest hard working everyday guys and gals. The Bro-dozers here always see dirt and those 40 foot triple engine speedboats crammed next to people's homes are for subsistence fishing.....😅 Obviously!
@@Jay-me7gwYeah, you find me Ford 4x4 crew cab for 40 K! If you think trucks are affordable, I've got some conspiracy theories to sell you: Contrails, Fluoride, Stolen election, Bigfoot, Chupacabra, Area 51, ....what else do you believe?
@@Jay-me7gw50,000 plus with NO options, sorry about your broken abacus! 🧮
Dude, this is literally a super truck. It’s supposed to be ridiculous and expensive. That’s like saying the average person can no longer afford a Ferrari 🙄 You don’t watch this video to cross shop it with a second gen Tacoma, you watch it cuz it’s fun 😂
Awesome Video. Really Enjoyed this one Andre. Looks like you had a Blast !
This is the coolest truck on the market this year.
Boring compared to the RHO.
Always a meat rider present... stop being butt hurt clown lol @@BloodAlwaysFindsItsLevel
@@BloodAlwaysFindsItsLevel 😂😂
The engine roars like a Lion and the suspension is unbelievable. Thanks for the report Andrey, well done.
I'm glad that you had a blast driving that super truck, Andre.
Beautiful truck! It's OK to be a fanboy for the last of the V8 supercharged trucks, LOL. 😁
You Have To Love Ford Performance!!! Other Manufacturers Are Missing The Opportunity!! People Are Not Buying Into The EV World!! 👍
All thx to the TRX!!!
Ford Raptor R is such an awesome truck. Only wish that Ford didn't drop the Torsen front differential on the Raptors.
Andre that was Awesome! 😎
Thank you!
I like that white. I saw one in that green-purple color the other day and it was beautiful
Great job Andrey! Sharing your genuine excitement in the experience is priceless!
Thank you for watching.
Thank you Andrey for you honest review. Yes most won't be able to afford it but that's doesn't take away it being a great truck. Enjoy the video I'm sure it was a blast although sometimes consurning because of the cost.
Thank you for the kind words.
When I ordered my Tremor last year (February), I was leaning towards ordering a Raptor. The local dealer said it may be WELL over 6 months for delivery if they even accepted the order. Although the Raptor has some clearance advantages, I'm happy with the Tremor and the front Torsen. Peace, Love!!
Love the Raptor!! Such a beautiful 😍 and capable truck!! Sadly out of my price range 😢😅. Thanks for the video guys! Loving all the content!
You really nailed it at the end about the performance but price.
My brothers. You need more go pros and an fpv drone for a review like this
That grinn, says Smiles per Gallon!!!
It's so cool that in 2024 you can buy a production SUPERTRUCK! I dreamed of this concept when I was a kid looking at production supercars.
That Raptor R is dope❤
The sound of the Engine is insane!
Loved your video. Thank you for the opportunity to live vicariously. It’s quicker and cheaper - because life is too short to do everything yourself. 😀
I spent 12 years saving for my 22 V6 and I haven’t regretted it for one second. It’s already taken me to places I’d never dreamed I could visit. I know how you feel when you say your driving skills aren’t up to the truck’s capabilities. I’m definitely that way and I marvel at the truck’s ability to compensate for my weaknesses.
My only complaint with the truck is that it’s too easy to be an a-hole. Merely being present in a Code Orange Raptor is apparently a challenge to the manhood of any nearby male driving a pickup. Tormenting BMWs and Jeeps is child’s play. For an old gray hair like me, i find it a struggle to maintain good behavior when I can just gently squeeze that right pedal and . . . .
This truck is the equivalent of a supercar. High performance comes at a price.
I will still know by this vid that it is still an unaffordable unicorn.....thanks TFL.....👍
This will look very nice at a celebrity mansion driveway.
The dual valve rebound and compression knobs are color coded the same way as on a mountain bike shock. Funny.
I love all tfl cast but I wouldn’t watch trucks with out Andre. He is the man. He loves what he does
Fun Truck!
make a 2 door, short bed, and i'm sold..
I've always thought Raptors are the perfect truck to have on a Montana ranch if you don't use it as a work truck.
Or just use it as a daily car those fox suspension are great on road too. It can still carry decent payload
Take note TFL, that’s where those types of trucks need to be tested. JV, Anza Borrego! Not Moab or some forest road with sharp rocks. Leave those trails to jeeps and broncos
We are taking notes.
Did they beef up the steering rod that Mike broke on his yt channel?
The panoramic sunroof on the Ranger Raptor is the only thing we miss here in Europe on the available options we have.
Our ranger raptor does not get sunroof
new stuff, how abrasive is sand on the clear coat? just blasts off like a butterfly on a dandelion after a wind gust?
Are you gonna drive the 24 v6 raptor as well?
This comment section is so goddamn whiny. Bet you guys don’t complain about the price of a base 911 being over 100k and having sub 400 hp.
??
Always appreciate your honest reviews. Only if I had $110k burning a hole in my pocket would I get it. Otherwise, Tremor might fit me better as you described in another review. Keep up the good work and good times!
Looks like fun. God bless America.
Awesome truck! The graphics are a head scratcher I don’t get them
Is it just me, or does it feel like it's been forever since a Ranger Raptor video. Almost as much time as I've been waiting on mine to be delivered since ordering it over a year ago lol.
We will do more with our Ranger Raptor soon.
@@TFLoffroad
I hope so. I think you guys did more then enough videos on four wheel consumer appliances. No more Cyber refrigerator reviews please.
Yes, right now that is the ultimate high speed off roader. GM has never even tried to compete and Stellantis quit even though they had the ability to offer up to 840 hp with existing engines. A shame really. Good job Ford, good bye Stellantis, shame on you GM.
This truck Brought the kid inside Andre out😂😂
Tough day at the office I see!
The truck is cool. However, the fact that these trucks are all $100,000 is stupid. I don't see why they can't build us a functionally good truck with a lot less luxury. Prices of trucks are just out of hand. It's stupid.
That's my absolute dream truck, sadly I live in Europe, there's two Raptor Rs listed for sale relatively close to me, both cost about 230k € ~250k $ before taxes and stuff, needless to say I will never own one.
Don't worry, we live in US and still can't afford it
They aren't so impressive when you see them on the road. The ones with lights, rules, traffic and police.
It’s looks like a first gen
I'm just glad to see Ford still making badass trucks. If I could afford a truck for over 100K I would definitely get this over that electric crap (lightning).
yes plz
I'll keep my '21 XLT with the 5.0 Coyote and use the rest of the cash for a bed full of dirt bikes.
Nothing wrong with that option either !!
Should have compared the 37 pp to the R in this vid
I wish Ford would build a lot of the raptor r and charge less money. but for money you would think Ford would put the shocks on the rear axle up higher on the axle
For those of us who have the 23' Ford should upgrade the suspension and heads up display for the 23's, not more than a year and those are pivotal upgrades. I mean the truck is over 100k. Just my opinion....
You know what they say about buying a first-year model…
Beautiful truck 🛻 but antenna is way too long. I drive my truck 🛻 into the UCSF hospital car park which some are 3-4 levels. My F150 Antenna touches the ceiling all the time and including my car garage door. Ford needs to change it to a shark fin or a shorter antenna please TFL. Please tell Ford.
It’s a beautiful truck. It sucks how dealerships take advantage of people and mark them up $40,000, very unethical from their behalf. I hope one day we can buy directly from the OEM.
I'll be honest when it comes to trucks ppl live watching out. When it's out of budget, we don't care for it. Sports cars, on the other hand, are more appealing to us even if we can't afford it. Top gear the straight pipes to name a few.
You lucky duck you 😍
What a truck. It’s a shame that the dealers are such greedy 🤬 Just gives Ford such a bad rap. All manufactures, actually, since all dealer do/have done it. And done so for a long time.
Quite a few comments stating that “nobody” can afford this truck. Yet, Ford is selling these trucks at rapid pace [days on lot]. What some people may be overlooking is that the curb weight of this truck makes for a prime choice when it comes to a business write down (i.e. hedge against higher taxable income).
Here in Silicon Valley; buying a Rapor R proves to be an excellent counter to what would otherwise be a “money grab” from the IRS. Do people not grasp that starting a business and using legal tax efficiencies are at your disposal if you choose to pursue such opportunities?
I hope ford has enough warehouses to store these unaffordable monsters. They are just dreams for us now.
These are selling extremely well. I have no combative comments for you; simply letting you know that people run these through their business as a write-off, as the tax laws require a curb weight that makes this truck a prime choice for tax avoidance.
The sell everyone they build.
If Ford and all other legacy automakers wanna stay alive they gotta get rid of the dealership markups
Let's have a Maverick Raptor for the people...
Absolutely with a 2.7 eco or 2.3 eco ....with 33s
Out of control awesome truck. If money was no object then it would be in my garage.
A real truck for the common blue collar working man
Lol is this a bot? What?
Wasn't meant to be a truck for a regular working man. That's why they only make 10,000-20,000 of them a year. People complain about truck prices being priced like a house but forget housing prices have shot up 50% in the last five years.
@@FreeTimeFeats nah, just a sense of humor lel
Would love to see the same course in a Land Cruiser vs. Raptor video.
Why? Not like the Land Cruiser could keep up. In the slow speed stuff with 37s the Land Cruiser still Couldn’t hang. I guess it would get clicks though.
You done good Andre! The truck looks impressive, though it irritates me that they have the fake power bulge on the hood. No need for nonsense.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate it.
Ford Raptor R has always been the best I think you should test the cyber truck and the hummer ev against it Johnson Valley
The video was really fun to watch and it looks like you had lots of fun.
So... 5 whole minutes of driving in sand idiocy without stating the price of the vehicle...
Proper journalism.
Did you watch the end?
They secretly removed the front torsen diff
They did it in 2023 trucks as well.
@@TFLoffroad yea but you can still find a 23 with it
"If you already have a 2023 Raptor R, is it worth upgrading?"
The people who answer "yes" to that question (regardless of the specific vehicle) are the reason car prices are so outsized.
People need to stop complaining about the price on this. It’s literally a brand new “super truck”. It’s supposed to be fun and ridiculous. Just enjoy the video
Meh. All that and the owners are all still complaining that the TRX/RHO is getting just as much, if not more attention.
I do what I want.
That'd be possibly the WORST thing we can do. Dealers are already marking them up insanely high with everyone complaining. Imagine what they'd do if no one complained about the price.
@@burgerbandit3646 peepeepoopoo
@@1arry13gend no u don’t
Everyone is complaining about how much the truck costs but yet the truck sells out every year!
This only the second yr !
Few Raptor R…….enough rich folks .
In my hometown there are 2 Raptor R trucks, both owned by the father and son that own the local Ford dealer
Maybe lower the tire pressure to 12 psi …
Here in Mexico some places are selling these for more than 175k USD if you want it right now, I honestly prefer a polaris or a canam and hava a regular truck to tow it, after all they are better off road than this truck and everything is cheaper if things go wrong
cars and trucks across the board have been rising in price faster in Mexico than in the US, about ten years ago the same car in the same configuration was about 10% cheaper here than it was north of the border, these days in most cases although cars in the US haven't gotten any cheaper if you compare like for like the same car is about 10% more expensive here in Mexico.
What is we have a Gen1? Lol
as a TRX owner I'm glad Ford did this. I hope Ram pulls their head out of their a$$ and comes back with something incredible.
Ram need to
They won't that bad until stellantis taking over
why are the models being released so late in the year ,2025 models should be out in mid august
You should have brought the Cyber truck to do a side-by-side testing so I don't have to listen to my Tesla Kool-Aid drinking friends that the Cyber truck is superior.
Save 70 grand and throw a whipple on a 5.0 tremor and you have basically the same
Ditch the damn ridiculous Texas sized moon/sunroofs. I can imagine the glass breaking with the flexing/impacts.
The final nail in the TRX coffin.
Every truck review is followed by comments “oh my goodness, I can’t believe how expensive trucks have gotten”. No shit! Someone else comment something useful.
If we are going to be forced to watch videos filled with unobtainum, at least trade out the old dudes and put up some hot babes to watch, keep us entertained!
Ford ... the most recalled vehicle for the last 3 years 😊
Don't worry Ken, you will never be able to afford this vehicle.
More recalls than GM and Chrysler combined.
@@glaffoon1 @baffoon Enjoy the video.
At least they’re catching the usually minor problems before they can happen. With a Ram, they don’t and then it breaks without any grounds to get your money back.
Not all recalls are bad. We had 1 recall on our 2020. They put a rubber cap on the trailer camera feed. I had 1 recall on our 23 Bronco Sport. They missed the factory floor mats and installed a new set.
Looking at this huge over priced monster I can understand why the Mavericks are selling like crazy
Haha
Raptors are always hard to get. Much wanted.
Nobody pays over sticker for a dumb girly truck like the Maverick...lol

It looks like a ranger

It looks like the wheel design on the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2
After essentially innovating the market of pseudo production/consumer-level 'super trucks' with the first gen Raptor, I'm still not sold on Ford really doing it best other than being first. The TRX pushed the bar up to extraordinary levels, but with either entry, the price point was borderline ridiculous for the people that really enjoy these options. It is somewhat comical with Ram's marketing towards the Raptor, then bowing out of the competition entirely just when things were getting interesting.
The TRX was overpowered with underperforming suspension.
The TRX lost against a pre-refresh 37 pack in a desert race with the same driver behind both. The 37 pack before the refresh was the least ideal model for desert running. The driver even got extra practice in the RAM, and said he could have driven the Raptor harder.
I hate new design of F150 LINE UP, SPECIALLY the front facia and headlight design.
For that kind of money i would rather have a f 350 6.7 loaded
I want to see this go head to head with the Cybertruck in these dune and Baja style rides. Enough with the towing already, we know they’re not meant for that
Full pick up truck are available and affordable everywhere, all kind of brands. This raptor R is a super truck. The only truck in the world that is like this from the factory. So is supposed to be costly for what it is. I don’t see why people are complaining, no this will never cost 60k like you like. And on top you have inflation too.
Where them TRX females at?????
