I look forward to seeing these in their native habitat, at the local Costco.
Parked crooked in three spots
Cool as hell truck, but yeah they all end up as mall crawlers and bros trying to show off.
Can load up a 72” flat screen in this bad boy 😤 money well spent
Definitely lots that will never get dirty
Go out west and they do get used, but in Colorado where I live they are very much mall crawlers
Dudes 100 % salesman
Agreed, no enginerd about him.
Right.
@@fry.master Simple way to tell, engineers actually use technical language. This guy just kept blabbing sales/marketing crap.
@@SuperGuyKY Even easier. No iron ring, no engineer.
Exactly what I was thinking
For a guy who was introduced as most decidedly NOT a "marketing guy" he sure ended up sounding just like one on many occasions.
...when he's saying "V6 Raptor" instead of "EcoBoost Raptor", and complaining about touch screens with Jay when new Fords like the '24 Mustang are getting even bigger touch screens?
When Jay asked about the warranty off-road the guy was so noncommittal.
No kidding
@@galactictomato1434 One of my favourite moments was the tactful and yet also amusing manner in which Jay called him out on his BS in response to his claim that its appearance is "subtle"!
He's a TECHNICAL PM..he just knows a LITTLE bit tech stuff..definitely not an Engineer.
If we did a drinking game for "right", I'd be hammered in about a minute.
Thanks for the laugh...!
I can't stop hearing it, probably cause he can't stop saying it
Lol literally came to the comments to look for this.
Lol me too. Dude is hard to watch and listen to.
"Right" Count needed. 😂
Dang this guy takes you on a 3 minute sales pitch when answering a question and cant stop saying "right"
Right!
but Ford's support of LGBTs isn't right
I thought we weren't getting the marketing guy.
Turns out WE DID get the marketing guy.
Genuine Jay can see right through this salesman!
0:15 That grin from feeling it’s power. Every gear head knows that feeling.
What power? The power of gay?
Lol I got one of the last 4.7 v8 jeep grand cheeroke's its 4wd all the time and I break loose all off them at a stop sign
@@trevorpollooverrated reply from you to be honest
When it puts that big of a smile on Jay's face, you know it is something special!
Because he's wealthy.
@@jcoats5529 Because he has driven everything there is, for longer than double my lifespan! When you have driven that much, the novelty would definitely fade, after awhile. So seeing him genuinely light up, as he did, let's me know this is a special truck!
Right Right
Ppl say this about my wife. Always walking around smiling, while I walk around bow legged, limping and can't talk cause my tongue is numb. But happy wife, happy life. So what if I lose taste buds every year. Better than buying useless crap every occasion.
0:30 the raptor also makes a great grocery getter too! You'll need all 700 hp for those cheerios!
I also thought it was funny that Jay kept asking technical questions and the engineer/salesman kept diverting his answers into a marketing commercial. 😅
The ford guy said "right" approximately 10 million times
He's ford's yes man
Right
its a michigan thing,righhttt
but Ford's support of LGBTs isn't right
I've told you a billion times not to exaggerate. 😅🤣😂
My family has always used the key pad. I just got an f150 and am so happy it’s still there. Going tubing, gym, crowd surfing at concert, anywhere you might lose your keys, leaving the keys locked in is so nice.
I know these guys are crazy I would love the keypad for going to the gym or going hiking I don't always want to carry my keys. Everybody I know who owns a Ford with the keypad loves the keypad. Literally everyone. Why other car makers have not done this I do not know.
I hate when salesmen finish a statement with...”Right”. Maybe it’s wrong.
I couldn't watch it because of (write, right, Wright, rite) it drove me crazy....
A way of those lacking confidence to try to transfer an idea as fact that they themselves feel doubt over. Alternatives? 1) just bold-face lie 2) sell on the merits, and discuss the negatives if they come up at face value.
People also do that when they’re just plain arrogant or have a superiority complex.
I’ve never met the guy so I can’t say one way or t’other but if you just stick to the merits you can get through with your integrity intact.
This interview was painful to watch because of the amount of times he’s said “right” 😅
@@alexgrindnshine2522 I could not finish it because of it.
Yay, another model that dealers will get 1 of and sell for 50K over sticker.
And will probably have some sort of recalls in the future lol
Cry about it 😭
Great video. Keep up the good work Jay, thanks for uploading!
Love the way Jay cackles when he puts his foot into it. He’s one of us.
😂can't wait to see these trucks at the local whole foods❤
Those are the only people who can afford this truck after the $30k dealer ADM 😂
... navigating potholes up to 2 inches deep..
So you’d rather me just park my TRX in the woods/desert and never see it on the street? Imagine being so dumb, you think I can’t go to the grocery store in MY 100k truck 🫵🏽🤡
"Not a marketing guy" did a lot of marketing
This feels like Jay walked into a dealership and the guy at the door told him he's actually an engineer 😊
Greeted at the door by captain asskisser who knows nothing that's not listed on the brochure. He literally talks empty words for 20 minutes
Anyone who says “right” in every sentence should stop talking.
Jay love seeing you still posting your fantastic informative videos. Hope you are healing up well and I'm still jealous of your garage.😎
I use the door keypad on my F150 all the time, love it! (and the truck, it’s fantastic and zero issues in three years so far)
sure you do shirley for sure
The keypad was the only way I could get into my 95 Grand Marquis. Now I'm lost when I have a car without it. I use the keypad on my 15 Fusion every morning when I need to get something out of my car, or when I go for a walk with basketball shorts on and don't want my keys hitting my sack the whole time.
Nice to be able to get something out of my truck without bringing my key with me.
@@jpadilla21 Yes because a key is so heavy and awkward to carry and use.
It’s useless now because you can’t hide your keys inside when you go snowboarding or riding dirt bikes. You have to carry the keys now, and might as well push the buttons on the fob.
The Key Pad entry is handy if you lose your keys/fob while out hiking fishing etc. Or somehow lock them in the Truck.
01:50 For an Engineer and not a "Marketing Guy", this guy sure sounds like "a Marketing Guy". 😅🤣😂
No kidding. The only phrase he left out was "In order to maximize the user experience...". 😵
BS - Chemistry, MBA - Finance. No engineering degree, not an engineer. His role at Ford prior to being the Raptor Program Manager was Finance Analyst. As far as automotive is concerned he's money/business guy.
Anyone who is passionate about cars and trucks are going to sound like that.
@@andronicase Oh yes, that's exactly how the guy at "Vice Grip Garage" speaks.
He's a Program manager, they are good in marketing as they need to market the senior mgmt how well the program is going and the output is, so he has to do pseudo marketing internally anyways which comes handy here in this interview 🙂
Keep up the good work Jay..Love your channel.
Its a nice truck. I hope all the f series gets better. Makes me nervous seeing some of these decisions they make but others are impressive. We put a big boulder in an f150 and moved it across the country
Always good to a new video from Jay...Raptor R is a beast!
In a way speed shops are in their hay-days too Jay...just plugging in a laptop and a few clicks later you have more horse power among other things too.
I don't have a Raptor or Raptor R, but I'm getting over 20 mpg combined in my 5.0 tremor with 3:73 gears (if I recall correctly), so mileage is obviously getting better all the time. I haven't supercharged the tremor (yet), but I'm contemplating it. I bought the v-8 specifically because I thought I might supercharge it but having the 20 mpg in a full-size truck with 400 hp is giving me a little pause. Peace, Love!!
That’s the truck I want, but just can’t swing $75K right now, much less the $111K for the Raptor R.
But I would like to go back to a v-8 before they stop making them. I guess that’ll be after I have some fun with my Bronco.
20-mpg on a v-8 Tremor…that’s incredible…my 3.5 boost never did that for me.
@@michaelparsons541 I was absolutely shocked at the mpg. I checked the first couple tanks and I'm checking the current one. I'm a little over 3K miles and I've never owned a vehicle that got better than advertised mileage. Hell, I don't know if I've ever owned a vehicle that got advertised mileage. I wonder if Ford is pushing the eco-boost because they have so much invested in it. The eco is a very powerful engine. This was a special-order truck, but it only took a month for me to get it. I really only bought the truck because my company needed work trucks and my personal truck had been super reliable and a great off roader, so I sold it to them (us/me) to save $20K over buying a new truck. Peace, Love!!
I was also thinking about getting a TREMOR with the 5.0, until I found out they have Cylinder Deactivation. It's now a No go for me. Good Luck.
@@MickeyR6 Mine has the cylinder deactivation, but it won't once I add the supercharger. You can also just unplug that battery lead. Then again, I am getting over 20 mpg combined right now, so there is that. The cylinder deactivation is just stopping fuel flow to those cylinders from what I understand, but I shared your concern. Peace, Love!!
@@michaelparsons541 you'd have to be a yuppie clown to pay that much for a truck. by a sports car
Interesting video, Jay, who has many vehicles in every range, seemed honestly impressed by the Raptor R. He mentioned he did some preview of the truck beforehand so he didn’t go into the test blind. He knew what others had said , good and bad, and seemed impressed by the level of engineering, fit, and finish. I can see Jay having a Raptor R as a daily driver and popping a smile as he punched the gas just to feel the roar.
😂😂
Jay is a national treasure!
Canada 🇨🇦 too lol
And the feller interestingly never once said
the word “RIGHT” RIGHT RIGHT REPEATEDLY OVER 100 times 😂
Right?
Right
Right
@@goobersdaaaddy yep
@@Sloimer Si
Jay must have been paid for this. There's no way he could have done it otherwise. This guy is a total salesman. He can't say no, and Jay never challenges.
The length of the video suggests it's an ad. These companies treat Jay right so he treats them right. But it's an ad.
Jay has always put money first. Don't hold your breath waiting for him to make a morally based decision. He loves Jay and Jay loves money.
Every new car video of his that features someone from the company is definitely an ad lol
@@Monoman2345 He used to not be this way.
of corse they were both paid for this, and by watching the ads you actually helped pay
I wish Ford wouldn't force you into the expensive Pep Boys decal package.
Easy to remove
Kinda like the Dale Earnhardt Monte Carlo and the F150 Harley Davidson edition
@@bobman2025 True....but it sucks literally throwing $1100 in the trash.
Feel the same way when I purchase any equipment or accessories that say "farm, boat, or Camping" those magic words add so much value.
You can opt out of it when specing it out
“You can use it for anything” not
If you paid 200k for. It’ll sit in a garage……
♥️🇬🇧😦 how much? Away to fek!
Once again Jay says: "Lane lines? I don't need no stinking lane lines!"
WhooooooHooooooo finally Jay Leno Garage is in 4K no less❣.....Thanks Mr America Jay Leno 👍
I got a Ranger Tremor because it's all that was available when I washed a base model. Anyways, their point about the bad roads is so valid. I'm in Alaska, our roads are horrendous. The off-road suspension and tires really help driving dynamics if you live somewhere with questionable road surfaces.
Love the color too. My neighbor has the TRX and it's beautiful. Love to park this truck next to his.
Keeping up with the Jones
'Not a marketing guy' - it was ONLY marketing sales. lol.
Ive always daily driven modified 4x4s and the ones i built when i was younger rode terribly on road ill admit that but my favorite thing about daily driving our jeeps nowadays is how soft and comfortable the ride is going over bumps and curbs and pot holes speed bumps all of it is really just a fun ride. Our jeeps are pretty extreme compared to the raptor since so much is custom built and aftermarket but i can totally understand the appeal to someone who isn't into off-road 4x4 stuff wanting to daily drive one of these. Our jeeps arent built for racing like the raptor is more geared towards desert racing trophy truck type stuff but i do understand the soft ride and handling of a quality suspension it really is nice to bomb down a dirt road with a super smooth ride or drive around town floating over crap roads and things. One thing thats amazing is the stability and capability of these trucks right off the showroom floor, i am not a ford person at all whatsoever but these raptor trucks are a lot of fun. I think its so cool that company's are building vehicles to be this capable and powerful. I dont think we are going to have these sorts of vehicles available new for a whole lot longer i hope im wrong but it feels like some of these awesome vehicles are coming to an end with the push for electric and little putt putt cars. Modern gas engine technology is just so cool too pushing that much horsepower reliably in a stock vehicle with a warranty although id argue some arent as reliable as others its still really good.
I could not help watching the Camera Truck trying to keep up 🤣🤣👍👍 Great Truck Jay
we live in the golden age of “rich man’s toys” 😂
Damn so cool. Id like to get one!
Let's goooo Jay Leno finally got his Raptor R
the f 150 raptor r and the bronco are both amazing suvs and tony greco is good engineer so professional good video jay.
Jay just like a kid in a candy store :)
Built Ford Raptor Tough, thanks Jay. 😎👍😎
You mean, “built rainbow gay”.
Jay Sir,
You have my and the many in here up most RESPECT!
The amount of knowledge that Jay has on history forgotten is insane! Engineers from a different life and vehicles that most have no idea of. Mr. Leno will never be replicated and we love you!
There is f150 raptor r at my local mercedes dealership and it's 160k unreal
That’s nothing I saw a 2024 Cadillac Escalade V series for $248,000zzzz
You can tell Jay didn't like this car - he didn't mention his Mclaren P1 😂
Um... I think you meant his F-1, but we know what you're talking about. I kinda agree.😂
@@mountainmandale1587 Um... I think you meant his F1, but we know what you're talking about.
Mclaren is trash
I think it's funny that it has tow hooks, if it's so awesome it shouldn't need to be towed
@@macbook802 the tundra doesn't have them but it ain't awsome🤷♂️ the truck is badass not invincible plus as Joe from ratis rides said u can use them to pull out lesser vehicles
13:46 'This is a disruptor (dis-Raptor?🤣) in the plant [...]'
My '05 F150 had that keypad entry when I bought the truck. I thought it would be a useless feature, and turned out to be the most useful feature I ever experienced.
Love the look of that Raptor. And a very informative video, much more so than so many videos I see out there. This is I think the best I've ever seen actually. Thumbs up. I have 2 questions at the end, but first some comments: The raptor "R" is really more than I need, but I want one, darn it. 🙂 May end up getting the regular, latest gen Raptor, instead of the more powerful "R", but we'll see. It's funny, but the primary reason I'm only considering a Ford F150 and not some other brand, is that optional fold out flat work surface between the front row seats; I would use that so much, taking my laptop with me and along with a mobile hotspot making my home office mobile; sometimes it's the little things, and no one else offers that. There are other reasons I like the Ford F150 too, of course. I should probably just customize/raptorize an F150 Platinum at my age, those massaging, more luxury seats would be nice, but that Raptor, wow!
Two things I do wonder about: How does the Raptor do in very cold, snowy, wintery weather and at high altitudes in ski country? And though those Raptor seats are really nice, is there any way I could get the loaded, blacked out, all leather, max luxury, massaging, reclining seats of the Platinum in the Raptor? If I could, then my only remaining decisions would be "R" or not "R" version, and the 35 or 37 tires. I generally would get all black, and dull out those bright stickers, but that grey is nice, so that decision too, but I'd be happy with either of those colors.
your best bet is a 5.0 platinum and ship it to pax power for a raptor conversion
How many times did this guy say "right"?
Nice work Mr Lenno. Amazing truck!
Finally a proper v8 in the raptor. I was never sold on the v6. So i kept my og raptor with the 6.2
I absolutely love the keypad on the door. Great for going snowboarding or swimming without your keys
Going to the dunes (sand buggies)
Drop the keys into the sand and you'll never see them again.
Leave the key in the truck and use the keypad.
Nearly 200k for a truck, no thanks
Especially when you consider that for half the money, you can get two interesting used cars or one really interesting one and a beater.
Thnxs Jay I'm a big fan of your channel and the big dog garage.
An incredible truck that the people who buy it may mistakenly drive over a curb once in a while.I still want one.😊
Thanks Jay and crew!✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
I want one of those Raptor sweaters hes wearing.
Suggested retail price,, 30$. Price at the dealership 3K ;)
great episode for a drinking game, take a drink every time the doofus says "right" and be blotto 5 minutes in
Jay says "it's funny..." a lot
Getting my order in Jay! Great vid as always!
I don't appreciate new stuff that I can go to a dealer and see, but I appreciate it's part of the car culture. What I'd really like to see is Guy Martin and Jay Leno talk bikes. If Guy had a ride in Jay's Merlin powered car, he'd be over the moon.
We decided to lose the leaf springs on the Raptor, not for stability, but because the TRX didnt have leaf springs and they needed to step up their game. I had the Gen 2 Raptor the Leaf springs sucked on the lighter Raptor. Coils are so much better and I love my TRX. I think the Raptor R is an awesome truck, but not for 110k base price. I had a hard time justifying the 82k price tag on my 97k MSRP TRX.....
Didn’t even talk about the live valve fox shocks or the active exhaust I think I should’ve been with Jay 😂
I feel like I still don't know anything about this truck except for the horse power and torque numbers SMH. They Puck car reps as well as they use draft picks for the lions.
Love Jay's videos
I remember going taking some of the mountain roads around Silverton, CO several years ago in our old 96 Jeep XJ. We were with a few other new Wranglers that were all decked out with probably $10-20k worth of off-road stuff. All the guys driving those were all excited and happy to talk about all the stuff they put on their Wranglers. Our XJ was pretty modest and close to stock and we kept up just fine, but they had to remark saying how our XJ probably wouldn’t make it out there. Then we were coming down off the trail and saw an old school bus and old Honda Accord back on the trails. And I sort of just laughed at those Jeep guys who thought they were high and mighty in their fancy off-road wranglers and then they saw that a old beat-up Honda Accord could do the trails we were doing . They had spent $50-70k on their jeeps to do nothing more than what a basic car could do. When I see these Raptors, I get the same feeling.
A dream truck . . . One I will never own.
Ford did a good job finally putting the V8 back in the Raptor R to bad most of them will be sitting on the side of the garage designated for the RV collecting dust bunnies 🐰 😂
😂😂😂facts
Well why not. It would make a badass tow vehicle.
Keypad throwback, family's '88 Taurus LX wagon had driver's door combination to unlock. Code safely stored for reference on rear hatch bottom.
Brilliant content.
Dealer “market adjustments” on this truck are insane. Now Ford is making available a dealer installed supercharger for 5.0L F150’s with a 3 yr warranty. Horsepower will be 650+. Knowing how California dealers work, that supercharged F150 will likely get market adjustments that could drive the msrp closer to the RaptorR. Fast trucks, but expensive.
right? right right right? right? right right right right? right? right? right right
Do you drink Mountain Dew? Is your name Justin? Is a Slim Jim your daily lunch? Do you want a truck three times the cost of your house? Ford can help.
The sound is so good, so soothing as it goes… Wow…
That's a badass truck
Finally got the V8 with a supercharger
V6 just doesn’t cut it
V8 sound can’t be matched by any V6
Well done Ford
Long live the V8
Thanks Jay😎
I’ve never wanted a Ford raptor more than now
LOVE that the doors don't ding with the Ford insanity ring. NICE!!
Whoever asked for that??? For God sakes. Do-DO-do... To infinity and beyond. I mean, come on already!!!
I love your channel. I miss you on late night. Wish you would return and bring some sanity, class, and actual entertainment back as well.
Great video, A pleasure to listen to Tony talk about the truck.
‘This is not a PR guy.’ I’m glad you told me. I would not have known that otherwise 🙂
After leaving engineer school, he certainly enlisted at marketing school 😅
No kidding. I'm a die-hard Ford guy, but I wanted nothing more than for him to just shut up.
After the 15th use of "product" and 5th use of "strategy" I started to suspect this might be a PR guy
Bring on an engineer to explain why ford took the v8 out of the Raptor and then brought it back as a marketing strategy
Jay, a shout out from the other side of the pond. Great Show, put's the UK 'Jeremy Clarkson' show to shame (All lads and ladettes in a studio with d list celebrities). Your passion and knowledge about cars stands out. One of my favourite episodes was the guy with the restored Mini Minor 850 you did six years ago.
Great Truck and great video !!!
We brought this dynamic product to market so the consumer could experience the quality that they deserve
He said a bunch of nothing when jay asked about the leaf springs lol
The keypad on the door is great for instances like going to the beach. You want to lock your car but not have your keys on you, lost in the sand etc. Now you can lock them in the vehicle 👍🏻
Thank you Good insights !
Nothing rides better than a raptor.
I agree. My buddy had an f450 and a raptor, he refused to drive the raptor and he kept having heart attacks. I kept saying it's because the f450 rides harder than a dump truck. The raptor is definitely America's Cadillac these days
Now that you say it, manufacturers don't try for ride comfort anymore. It's all about styling and who can piss harder. Even the rolls royces don't focus on ride comfort, probably because rolling on 15" wheels isn't acceptable anymore
Trx and a Cadillac
@@Hayden_gearheart raptor is definitely smoother than a new escalade. I've never been in a trx
As Clarkson likes to say: Turn dinosaurs into nooooooise!
Jay blasting thru a yellow , living dangerously.
Awesome ride!
A little pricey but an amazing truck
sure you do shirley for sure
125k minimum 😂 super overpriced for ford quality might as well buy a Shelby and have something more custom and cool and more worth it….
Hey Jay, just wanted to say I love the show. CNBC are idiots! Only show I watched on that network. Hoping you bring the complete show back here on RUclips. Miss all the different segments you had, especially the segments with Don Osborne! I hope you are recovering from all the miss fortune that you have indored recently! Not to many in Hollywood I give a hoot about, but you are one of the good ones!
Jay, Woburn High, Class of '67. Loved seeing you at Lennie's and in the Zone back in the day. Best stand-up ever. You haven't lost a step. God Bless You!
We love Jay down under. 😊
I ALWAYS get the keypads with my car. I use that thing at least twice every week. It's one of those features you don't know you need until you have one and start using it...
The profit margin on this is huge for Ford. Nice looking truck
It’s all about the Smiles Per Gallon with this truck! I love my Raptor R as it’s ridiculous in all the right ways!
Under the hood it actually looks good and simple. Most new ford's engine compartments look like rat nests from the factory
Fantastic TRUCK!!!!!!
Is this guy conducting an orchestra or directing planes on an aircraft carrier!😂
