Thank for watching!
I had a gen 2 Raptor and traded for a TRX. Traded the TRX for a gen 3 Raptor. I like the gen 3 Raptor best. It just feels more agile and smooth. Plus the ability to turn the exhaust down is a plus for me. I don’t want to rattle my neighbors windows when I start my truck.
Bro sits a mile away from his steering wheel! 😂😂 Nice truck man!
Stumbled upon your channel - you're doing great. Keep up the great work and thank you for the insights on the Raptor.
Appreciate that man!
Thanks for watching!
I traded up from the Gen 2 on 35s to the Gen 3 on 37s. It’s a different animal. 37s were meant to be on this truck. Once you ride on the 37s you won’t go back to 35s. Better traction in the rear end , smoother ride and floats across bumps effortlessly.
But why pay ford to upgrade tire size when you can do whatever wheels and tires you want for 6k?
Beautiful truck I looked at that color. I got the 21 in antimatter blue posted a video muddying it in the desert on my channel. I got the peasant package with 35s. I hear people say the 37s are great did not want to sacrifice the gas mileage and the acceleration for bigger tires. I have had it out in the desert raising hell and then 35 air down on method 701Bead grip wheels works fabulous. Definitely an awesome looking truck. Still love it a year and a half later and I always look back at it in the parking lot. This truck looks like it never missed leg day . The sus pension is Elegant❤
I just bought a used Gen 2. Hoping to get a Gen 3 on 37's someday! Great video.
Congrats on the Gen 2! And you wouldn’t think a 2 inch larger tire would look much different but man it give the Gen 3’s a crazy stance!
Thanks for watching!
Love ripping it through the national forest. Cagle has some nice camping spots too!
Used to bring my dirt bikes and hit up the trails there!
The Exhaust sounds just like my GTR thats crazy
Raptor smart cruise control and lane assist are pretty good also!
Nice video, well done and thorough review!
The best color choice on my opinion.
Yep but they got rid of it now it’s only anti matter blue 🙃
Sam Houston National Forest. We go there all the time to ride our KTMs and Raptors.
If Captain American had a truck, that would be it. Lol. It’s awesome. But curious…..u looking to get the bronco raptor?
Haha thats a good way to put it. And no, not that moved by the bronco raptor. I was hoping for a different engine (V8) and I can’t stand the fender flares. Looks like it’s a good performer from the reviews I’ve seen but not sure if they’ve fixed the rest of the issues I have with the bronco for me to drop a bunch of money again.
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thumbs up! It's funny but the primary reason I am only considering one of the Ford F150's, the Raptor, Tremor or fully loaded Platinum with a little lift, and none of the competitor brands, is that fold out front center console flat work surface. I would find that so incredibly useful, so often. In fact, being older and not the crazy off roader of my younger years I was even considering an suv instead of a pick up, but I want that flat work surface darn it, and no suv's offer it. Funny something so extraneous as that center console flat work surface would be my deciding factor. Good thing, I can get it on any of the F150's I'm considering. I may not need the Raptor, but dang I sure do want one, that extra width, likely carrying into more room inside the cab, certainly more stability, what a great, aggressive look to it, and those spring shocks front and rear making for so smooth and quiet a highway drive, that's huge for me too. I'll be on roads, including highways, more than off road. Frankly, I won't be doing so much serious "off roading" as in my youth, some just not as much, but it will still benefit me on dirt roads and getting to and from campsites and fishing spots, maybe even in snow stormy weather living in mountainy ski country as I do. Wish it got better mpg's, but nothing's perfect. Love those solid steel paddle changers and that they are on the steering column and not part of the shifter down low between the two front seats as other models or on the dash as some of today's suv's like those from GM are. I mean, switch to manual and use the paddles, on the Raptor you can keep both hands on the steering wheel, not just one hand, which also makes it easier to keep your eyes more constantly looking to the road ahead, and all that seems kind of fundamental to me, both from a safety and a performance perspective. Crazy. Dang, this is a beautiful truck.
A question, if you will: That row of tabs above the rear view mirror for hooking up the electricals for additional equipment to be used, like a row of roof top headlights for instance, it looks like there are 7 or 8 of them, what would be examples of things those could be used for, as many as you can think of? It looks like there are separate garage door buttons so it would not be for that. I'd love your insights. I've never had features like that and am trying to figure how many of those tabs I might find use for and for what purposes. Thanks.
Another question: I will use this in desert environments some, but more often I'll be in high altitude, mountainy ski country needing to get reliably thru snow storms to and from ski areas and home. Do you think this gen 3 Raptor will handle altitude and bad slippery weather like rain and sleet or especially snow well? Cold weather too, for that matter? And does it offer specific modes for slippery and for deep snow as the Tremor and Platinum do? Other thoughts on this issue? Thanks.
And again, exceptional review! Not just the run of the mill generic list of features, but your fave's and why. Thumbs up!
On my 2nd gen2 a 2020 it will destroy any winter weather off-road no worries
@@MS-mr4zm How about serious winter storm driving on road, on and off highways? Is there a "slippery" and maybe a "deep snow/sand" mode? Or can that wonderful adjustability he described set everything to be equivalent to a slippery or deep snow/sand mode? Oh, and all that air intake on the hood, I see the advantage of that in heat, but what about in extreme cold? These are some of my thoughts. I just love the look of that extra width, but also all that extra width in the interior, though a little concerned about that making in town driving and parking too difficult. Any thoughts on that?
@@Nate-zy5ce yeah there’s a slippery mode, the stock KO2s do pretty well in all conditions other than deep standing water @ speed b/c of how wide they are, but if ya REALLY wanna be unstoppable Nokian makes snow tires in the same size 315/70R17 & they’re studdable- that’s what I’m rocking in the winter on a separate set of wheels. It’s literally unstoppable, I pass plows on the highway in 4H doing 70mph in white out blizzard conditions, then you wanna slam on the brakes? Go ahead, abs may not even kick in
@@MS-mr4zm That sounds awesome! I wouldn't get studs, that's overkill for where I live, but would absolutely get dedicated snows without studs. Exciting as hell the way you describe it. Thanks for the replies. And I love the way he describes the suspension and smooth, quiet drive, for I would be doing a good deal of highway driving all year round, so sounds like an incredible road trip vehicle. I know the mpg is likely poor, but am hoping for a straight up maybe cross country drive, maybe 8 hours a day at a pop, that the highway mpg might be a bit better. Doubt the extended highway mpg would reach 20, but would be great if it did. Any idea?
@@Nate-zy5ce gains about 1mpg running 93 octane, but additionally been proven to put down an additional 25-35rwhp/Tq on 93 over 87 as well. On highway on cruise @ like 72 I get about 18.5mpg, it drops quite a bit soon as start going over 77-78mph for some reason (aero- lack thereof?) overall w/ me NOT being gentle
On the throttle whatsoever, running 93 octane & a Gearhead tune between my previous 2018 Raptor I put 42k miles on before it got totaled by a distracted driver & my current 2020 I just cracked 37k miles the weighted avg mixed mpg between the 2 is 15.1mpg….doesn’t sound great but actually truly is given the capability, for comparison, on my old 2015 GMC Sierra 6.2, which got better mpg stock, doing a 2” lift & adding only 33” tires (not the 35”s on the raptor) & w/ only 3.42 gears vs the 4.10s in Raptor that trucks mpg dropped to like 14.5mpg as a result!!! Meanwhile Raptor w/ bigger factory lift hint 35”s, 4.10 gears & more power it gets better mpg!
Love the video, great review I've got one coming!
The gen 3 sounds like the Raptor R V8 because of the design of the exhaust so just get some decals with the red R in the front grill no one will be able to see the difference unless they own one R.
Dude what the heck do you do for a profession to have shy of half mil in cars at your age!!? Goals without doubt. Good on ya man
He has a Sugar daddy.
This truck does not cost half a mil... are we watching the same video?
Loving the videos pal great job
Appreciate it man! Thanks for watching!
Owned a 2014 velocity blue svt raptor. Now I have a 2023 zr2 blue metallic, looking forward to the 2024 raptor, with the modified headlights. Slightly smaller headlights, I will probably switch back to Ford in 2025.
Nice man! ZR2’s are super underrated in my opinion. Sweet little trucks!
Thanks for watching!
@@drivenmad2089 it’s a Silverado zr2 v-8 not to be confused with a little Colorado 😂
Excellent video. I too have a C8 and looking to buy a Raptor. Any issues w. the moonroof? Thx nd Merry Christmas
Thanks man! And nope haven’t had any issues with it!
Merry Christmas!
@@drivenmad2089 I’m ready to order mine. You video helped a lot. Thank you
@@WFO. no problem man glad I could help!
Thank you for sharing. I’m currently looking to purchase Gen 3 Raptor or order a 2024 when available
Hope you'd buy the f150 raptor 37 package because it has a blue seats color or blue interior which is i think ur type. I like blue things also. I'd like to buy blue f150 sa as you but in 37 package. Gen3
What color is that
Looking to pick one of these up at MSRP this week. Any regrets? Does the eco boost suffice?
No regrets at all when it comes to buying it. Never really wanted for power in it. feels plenty quick for it’s size on and off-road.
Only regret I have with the truck was selling it instead of selling my bronco. I miss it all the time haha
@@drivenmad2089 I had a 21’ powerstoke f150 and miss it all the time too. I can only imagine missing a raptor! Why did you sell it?
@@PlatinumPeasant at the time, I had 3 off-roaders, wrangler 392, and a bronco. Didn’t need all 3, and thought the bronco made more sense to keep “RUclips” wise but I should’ve just sold that one because it was my least favorite haha
@@drivenmad2089 makes sense. Hey the 24’ is about to drop!
@@PlatinumPeasant oh trust me dude, I’ve got my eyes on it! I will get another one at some point haha
Good luck on yours man I’m sure you’ll love it 👍🏻
Weird. Mine does the same thing sometimes on the first to second shift. Almost like it’s gonna stall. It’s pretty violent under heavy throttle.
That’s the first time it happened to me. Sounded cool though haha has happened since then either so who knows.
Thanks for watching!
Get a Cobb transmission tune , it smooths everything out
Curious if that will have any affect on the warranty?
Tq mgmt, or the trans not warmed up yet, too bad you gen3 guys don’t have tunes available yet
I had to sell my house and my truck just to be able to buy a bus ticket and go look at one of these in person. I couldn’t afford the truck but that trip to look at it was worth it 😤💯 #DildoBaginsLife
😂🤙🏻
ADM?
I payed sticker for it
We all payed sticker for it duh 😂
