I love how honest this guy is. He's not over-selling the vehicle or under-selling it. It really seems like he's having a a regular conversation with you. A lot of companies would tell you that 1) they make the grill (even if they bought it off eBay) or 2) would straight up "forget" or not include where the grill came from. More companies need to learn something from this guy.
I agree I liked how straight forward he is.
Facts
I wholeheartedly agree. That's something I didn't really think about until you said it.
Especially Tuscany Motors. Overpriced plastic crap that’s only cosmetic.
Just don't ever criticize anything, even as a joke. Guy will call you every name in the book.
I saw one of these on the road, It's enormous!
That's what she said😁😁
That's what she said.
thats what you said.... last night
Imagine if one of those gets in a head on collision with a Prius
+Unbeatable Chicken yeah hahah. With that stupid aerodynamic design
Douwe Kruizenga The aluminum ford will fall apart
+bmwmsport11 these are based on 16 f250. They introduced the next generation with aluminum body in 17. These are made of steel
Douwe Kruizenga dlqql dlilqql and the other two carts are closed for the other two carts with no apparent time and
happened to a guy I know with a lifted truck he jumped over the prius with minor suspension damage to his truck
6:20 "I could drive this truck every day" -- With 8'2" width? Oh, the joy of planning every route to make sure you could fit.
mountainhobo Agree 😎 And parking ! You need two spots , and still have a hard time getting in their . 😱
@@dennispaugh5602 no you don't, dually's are wider and they fit in Fine
@@Ariel0104 You're wrong do some research it's not that hard. This truck is 2" wider.
@@dennispaugh5602 wouldn't be all that hard to park tbh. Be no different than parking a dualy lol. Just back in like every other dually driver does.
@Mountain hobo You don’t even need a permanent oversized designation at that width
The CARTELS just requested 100 MEGA RAPTOR made asap before the wall goes up!
Coming soon to 3 inches from your tailgate with its brights on
Bunnyshooter 223 nice rant. next time you see a truck merging, refer to the rule of tonnage and make way.
Bunnyshooter 223 no. you just suck at driving
Bunnyshooter 223 again. you can't drive
Troy Remy by that logic half ton pickup drivers better move aside for my Ford Expedition because I'm about 1,000 pounds heavier. So you and your light little pickup truck better move aside when I don't let you cut me off.
Welcome to "get the hell out of the fast lane slow ass", or get inched with brights. I'm pretty good at mirror aiming with them.
15:22 I think that's the first time anyone's ever called a Super Duty 'light'.
I wish I could afford to have this man build me a Super Duty. Looks like a good man that's passionate about what he does.
this is this the first custom Fab shop that doesn't charge a ridiculous amount of money.
It's like all stock except for the body mods and some tuning you really are only paying for the tiers 😂
Esteban Carrera it’s literally 25% stock bud
@@estebancarrera5188 the tires alone are a couple thousand easily, but more importantly the suspension differences are well into the thousands
Imagine picking up your kids in this lol
If I got the mega with the 6.7, I would do so many power modifications
I need the F350 with a 50 Cal. Mounted in back..
am i the only one who thinks that it looks unfinished?
Scorpion123 4 nope
The trucks are only missing front bumpers. So yeah, unfinished.
bobs and vegana no,you are in the group that complains. Good day.
You’r just not an off roader
It just looks that way without all the stickers and accents
So let me see if I got the purpose of this correctly: It is so wide that "offroad" here means rough but open desert, and it's F250 diesel so it can haul heavy trailers. Is that a thing?
The part of the video when he says down town San Diego is in Tucson AZ I seen the truck at Golden Corral!!!
If I had the cash I'd want a MEGA for sure! I love the enlarged prerunner bodies that have room for the tires to fit under as the suspension compresses. They look like a big trophy truck from the front but have all the heavy duty aspects of the F250. Amazing combo.
Dude said "high speed through the dessert" with no long travel huh 😂😂
Wheel bearings last 10 min.
17madracki17 You'd be surprised. The Dana 60HD unit bearings can take some shit. I've done a lot of wheeling and have over 200k on my '02 Dana 60(non hd) all with various oversize tires; Granted I wasn't running 300lbs tire combos. Regardless, the yuppies paying this type of cash could easily replace unit bearings like regular maintenance or step up to dynatracs.
arnt they sterling units
James Flores The rears are sterling 10.5's. Considering that the rear doesn't contend with steering forces and is designed to handle a few thousand pounds of payload directly above it, it can easily handle very large tires for the long haul. The fronts are Dana super 60's(not 60HD like I mistakenly wrote before); Probably the toughest factory Dana 60.
I once heard there was a man who made it last 11 minutes
Ive been running 18x39.5x15 boggers on my dana60 for 13 years. Never touched a bearing. Mud bogging... daily driving.. rock bouncing ... towing and i run a 8ft mayer snow plow on it all winter. Nov to may here in ontario canada. Plus our shitty roads beat the snot outta trucks.
I seen one of these beasts in Tucson Arizona at a ford car meet. Insane looking in person
El precio de ford raptor 250
awesome y'all took my advice n checked it out! glad to see some badass trucks built in my town
+ChevyNglockMan Yep. Very unique trucks !
The trucks are nice but it really needs some custom bumpers
Jacob He says most customers add their own custom bumpers
Please watch the video, dude!
Best video in a while
"Let's Face It," Roman, you are the king of dorks.
I just met the lady that owns this bad boy at a grocery store. This thing pulls in and I was like, “Holy Shit! I seen that on TFL!”
Seeing this thing in person was breathtaking! The lady is super cool too...
I love it!! Good hp and torque numbers
Roman you my friend are a die hard Ford Fan
Yeah, he shows no bias towards Ford when doing comparison videos.....
LOL Dark Side, Poe's Law going to get you on this one :)
Haha, yeah especially with some of these comments.
I hate that about him. His comparison videos annoy me. Even if there's no Ford, he's STILL gonna shit on a Dodge lmao
he also always acts like he knows more than whomever hes interviewing. He's a smug pos.
I literally didn’t know these existed until today, I’m at Buffalo Wild Wings and on my way into b dubs I saw the mega raptor I had to look this shit up so quick.
I freaking love them. I prefer the smaller one, but these guys do awesome work
should've done a 2017 super duty for its factory upgrades
The company can take an owner's truck and build it into a Super Raptor or a Mega. You don't have to just buy a truck outright from the company.
Nice. But where are the bumpers? looks like it's not done. It still needs custom bumpers to finish it.
+John G F250R says that customers like to add their own customized bumpers, so those get added later.
Love the Super and Mega Raptor trucks and a good review! Well done!
Drinking game!! Every time you hear “Yep” in the background when the guys trying to explain all the components
aint nobody towing in comfort in that thing
Yeah, should be a felony to tow any animals with that too. It's a huge danger to anything living.
Generic Name how?
Mike Bunero if your a Prius lover let me ask you this how many batteries and head lights have you replaced because that's more damage to the environment than ten of this truck
nope, love trucks, this thing is cool but if i am gonna tow, i will have a very different rig. if I'm crawling through the desert, this would be my first choice. try not to get so offended, by youtube comments. ;)
Mike Bunero I agree I wouldn't. even use it in the oil field maybe just on a finish up day but not as a work horse with 46 tires will not last long
I'll take one 😀😁😂
Cool, those fender well grooves are like the frontiers
I live in Marana and I drive some of the roads shown everyday and I've never seen these beautiful machines
I like how so many people comment on here negatively as if their fat asses have taken this thing thru a test across America. If you haven't had the pleasure of sitting in it much less drive it then I would just sit in awe like a lot of people do. Not because it's a Ford but because of this guy's ingenuity. Even if this were a Chevy or Dodge I would be impressed.
i would love to see dodge or Chevy do something like this
that truck is 🔥! 100% one of the best trucks ive ever seen. I love how it looks so close to to original raptor! keep up the amazing work!
I love how you started this!!! I want the megaXL!!!!!!!!!!
Very nicely done!
won't see soccer moms driving this one
Why not?
***** they'd be to "scared of it"
I bet these things would spend most of their time Mall Cruising and at Whole Foods
Where can I buy one and are they available TURN KEY or made to order?
In Texas, you will.
Don't waste 20 min of your life they do NOT take them in the dirt!!!!! Thumbs down 👎 that's how you know the off road suspension didn't work well because they didn't want to show off its off-road performance. Basically a cheap lift kit and fiberglass.
Jimmy Garcia the fiberglass would be fine. unless your going thru Baja at 100 mph.
Jimmy Garcia you can't talk down on the building material trophy trucks use. maybe the suspension but not fiberglass, lol
Bryce Anderson no the fiberglass is great I'm just not sure if the suspension would preform as well as the fiberglass.
They flew into town, and had 2 hours to film before they had to get back on a plane... not my fault they had no time to go off-road...
don't let some troll work you guys up . Trucks look awesome .
Merciful compensations 😊👍
after Watching. I would love to see one of these with a complete Unimog axles and chasis upgrades. That would be A-Mazing all around rig.
Pretty badass. Silly? Of course. But much better than the rolling vaginas with 10"+ lift on 33s running around Phoenix. I'd rather have an AEV Prospector though.
for that amount of money, i would have expected the LED lights. not the "basic work truck light or xlt😒😒😒"
jesusr13544794 there’s programming I’m sure
Man, I wish my super duty had a front end that hinged forward like that. Would make it a ton easier to work on.
So awesome, I love it, looking forward to buy one
I find those Dyno numbers hard to believe. "It's basically stock" but yet we get these high torque and hp numbers... the shit is getting high in here
I know this is a year old comment, but I am surprised nobody mentioned that tuning on a TD can really add a significant amount of extra power.
Them things need a big ass bumper
I seen that at my old work thing is huge
I just seen one of these driving down Cheyenne in Las Vegas a couple days ago. It was so bad ass it had me youtube it and look where I am now.
16mpg, B.S.
nathan koroush
Considering I averaged 23mpg in a stock 4WD 6.7 F250, rolling down the highway at 75, I don't actually doubt it.
That was a 2012 or 2013 work truck, so without the added power of later models.
nathan koroush it's programmed so.....
the front end looks unfinished
It is. Depends on what the owner wants.
Hahaha, just a day ago, I said to a good friend that what I really want is an F350 crew cab long bed Raptor dually. Guess this is the guy to build it when I win the lottery.
Awesome - I'd love to get one of these here in the UK
The raptor was all about speed, now it has no speed. So wtf it's no raptor.
FishFind3000 the raptor is faster than it ever has been
FishFind3000 I say make the diesel 500-600 horse power and it will make 1100-1200lb of torque that would rape a raptor
Tech By SnLiner the guy said it dies have that power
FishFind3000 it's not even a raptor, it's a super duty
speed not power very confusing to understand that they may not always be linear the raptor is fast offroad because of travel and flex complex suspension this is just a lifted superduty with a tuner according to what i just listened to and watched
There's no bumpers on it. GL driving it in Ohio without getting pulled over 😂
josh nalepa at 12:00 he said they can do bumpers
Two-Face I didn't hear it. Shouldn't they cone standard with them tho? I mean almost all states require you to have a bumper to legally to drive on the streets. I doubt anyone is going to tow these things to a off-road park lol
He said alot of guys like to do their own bumpers.
In the video, he says most customers want to make their own bumpers.
Ohio doesn't require front plates anymore laws were passed
I literally drooled when I saw the thumbnail.
I just saw this today at Mountain Crest Part in Las Vegas.
Looks like it just ate every other brand
585 on the dyno to the tire ain't happening on 46s with just a tune...
It’s probably like ultra4. Pretty niche market and you don’t want to lose any money and business if you can help it.
Sooner or later I will own a 250, just have to keep on saving 👍🏻 so fun to drive
I saw one of these parked outside a Panda Express 😆
cant wait to see some rich arab drooking over these and covering it in gold
STOP SAYING "YEP" AND "RIGHT" AFTER EVERY THING THE MAN SAYS. PLEASE
TrebuShade it's killing me!!!!
Yep
right.
Huh? YEP....🤣
RIGHT
Aww man I missed you guys because i live in Tucson AZ
muy muy buen trabajo se miran muy bien exelente trabajo muy buena idea Felicidades a este señor que hizo estás MEGA RAPTORS
Really glad they didn't make these "roll coal"
I had no clue they were based here in Tucson
Eric Ortiz I know right, I saw one at Fry's in Marana and looked em up and saw em in town , awesome trucks
I didn't either and I've lived here for 50yrs. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, there is a lot of cool manufacturing here. Scorpian rock crawlers are made here and they are one mean machine.
Awsome !! coolest truck yet .. good job
Considering the current state of the custom car economy, $22k is a very reasonable price for that. Good stuff. I really liked the part around 15:20 where you were talking about tires. When he says he's a fanatic and likes to make sure they are perfect that really goes a long way to show that he cares about the product he's putting out there.
the longer I watched, the less I liked it.
With a name "fluffy kitty noodles" I'm GLAD you don't like it... lol
F250R com Ooooh, little guy with a big attitude in a lifted truck. how exciting! I bet you're the kind of mommy's boy that gets her gas station chocolates _and_ Virginia Slims for mother's day.
fluffykittynoodles Oooh I bet your a feminist and thinks your you can take one anything. OooooooOoOoh
Loctus Too much lead paint?
fluffykittynoodles why?
If I wanted a powerstroke I'd just call your mom
IF i were to get one of these (im more of a lowered truck kind of guy), i would go for the super. i drive an F550 wheel lift and flatbed at work and i just live how our motorcycle carrier (6.2L F250) drives and how fast it is. plus, i adore the sound of a gas V8
Awesome company! Great video.
Yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep
Cool video. But those trucks look awful. First of all, a late model Super Duty with F-150 lights all around. The grille is extremely bad. I think these are ruining the essence of a Raptor.
Have no words. Mega is the T-Rex of of, well of all trucks.
we have a ton of great shops here in Tucson...from jeeps to cobra kits to these trucks...mostly what you see out here are desert trucks with the obvious fiberglass front clip...ive seen at least two of these and didnt realize it was glass. i thought they were modified raptors
The Over-Compensator 9000.
Lift blocks, stock motor, fiberglass, wheel spacers, big tires. Enjoy wasting you money people. 😂
Marcus Young yeah especially on that trans that lasts 10k miles
Derek Ortiz you're thinking about dodge
Marcus Young your wrong they did alot of work and you just came to say it sucks
Josh Stringer I guess you also enjoy Diesel Brothers
personally, I agree with Marcus... Imo, lift blocks are a cheap, potentially hazardous way out. I completely understand the idea of a budget build and cost effectiveness. however, when you consider the cost of building one to this guy's price tag, you would be better off to purchase lift springs and scrap the blocks. I won't go into the actual raptors selling performance for dealers, not my nich... but I will say that since you can figure 50k for the truck, 30k for the raptor kit, then the least this guy building these trucks can do is throw in $1,500, (give or take) for actual lift springs.
Love this super raptor. Very nice design!
I've seen one of these in Houston never knew it wasn't a one off build.
So all they do is put on fiberglass fenders and bolts on a lift in and throw some oversized tires on it? what a shitty conversion
If you want to pay 50, 000 more you can find another shop. Not everybody wants to spend another 50, 000 on top of cost for the truck. smh
Its a look you modify the truck how you want at 22k-28k all youre really paying for is the body kit, lift, corrective tuning, tires labor and paint. in reality as far as truck enthusiasts like myself I think its a pretty cool concept if you really want to stand out in a crowd
stupid and simply waste of money
it's about the same cost as a stock Raptor. and you get a V8 or a Powerstroke. what's not to like?
They moved the front axle forward also.
Pass.
Okay, Chevy boy
Sean Bryan actually I don't prefer one or the other. I love Ford vehicles.. in fact, I have only owned Ford and jeeps. This thing is just fully and honestly looks cheap.
This truck looks so nice
It’s a special order truck (conversion) so you can get a front bumper if tell them you want it. They probably left off the front bumper to showcase the suspension.
it needs a cummins instead of a power stroke
tremer88 then go do the same thing but for dodge
hell naw
Wow, it did awesome on that asphalt!
That becomes a beautiful truck!
All show and no go.
The body looks cheap, and flimsy compared to the factory.
Shekhar Moona its fiberglass dude
Shekhar Moona fibreglass
These trucks ain't for you bro
Shekhar Moona you cannot own it and no one cares
Uum I'm retired if I wanted to I could buy it. You don't know the depths of my retirement account.
I'd totally work for this guy, he seems like a good dude and knows his shit.
Once u get the tow upto speed steam power u can just switch it to eco mode 70mph or less cruse set. Grade changes or high altitude u run steam power boiler.
No, way that thing gets 16 mpg, I call bull shit especially weighing at 9k lbs also, gtfouttta heeah
1Deejay7 I own a cab chassis ram 5500 It weighs 9500 and only thing on it is a 5th wheel and plastic fenders and I barely get 14mpg and it's got 4.88 gears
He was most likely cruising down the hill with cruise control on
I got 24 mpg on the same tires running a gooseneck from SF to LA and back. With 1000 lbtq you can run at 1500-1700 rpm all day long.
I would still rather have Big Green lol
That mega raptor is so badass! Finally done right...
For all of that fab work that's a much lower price than I was expecting! Pretty damn Bad Ass! :-)
10:05 you can see the difference in colors
