    3 things I love about the Gen3: upgraded interior, infotainment screen/technology and bc it’s a Raptor 🛻

  • @dylanw890
    @dylanw890 2 года назад +4

    This is a really cool truck. Not everyone needs 700+ HP and the design is more more functional than form which I really like. With the TRX it looks so luxurious that you will never want to actually use it for what it was built to do. With that being said. I agree that the front fenders could have been wider but maybe Ford anticipate people swapping them out for a set of aftermarket ones that are either carbon fiber or just wider in general. A guy that goes to my gym has the gen 3 raptor and he has a set of carbon fiber fender flares on it and with the silver paint job he has, it looks so cool.

    I don't get it, in your 5 things you hate video, you said you didn't like:
    1) understated exterior styling, but you praise it here.
    2). Crappy fit and finish of the interior that didn't meet the standard of a 80k truck, yet you praise it here
    3). The performance of the truck with its "tiny v6". You were unhappy with lack of power increase for Gen 3 and that the 37 made it slower than your gen 2....yet you praise the performance here
    So which is it?

      I'm not trying to argue with your personal preferences but it's kinda weird for me why people like Gen 2 over Gen 3. They have the same proportions, probably even the same dimentions. Details is what makes those 2 look different. And that's weird to me because I don't even pay that close attention to details. I do prefer Gen 3 over Gen 2 mostly because of new colors and the 37s which do change proportions a little.

    There are a lot of things I like about the gen 3 over the 2. I think the front view looks better. It's tidier and simpler. If the gen 2 had the headlights and grille of the gen 3, it would be perfect. The rear on the 2 is far superior, imo. Especially in my supercab, which you can't even get anymore. I'll see how I feel when the gen 3 v8 37 package comes out.

It's got a loud power steering pump and some rattles in the dash but she fires up everytime and I have kept it in minty condition. Parts are cheap A/F even in this supply chain crisis I don't ever wanna sell it.

  • @ldmtag
    @ldmtag 2 года назад +4

    I heard Ford re-tuned shocks and some of the electronics for the 37. Does it really feel different compare to a regular Raptor? I read that regular Raptor is better for high speed offroading, jumps, etc., Raptor 37 is more of a rock crawler. The suspension travel is only about an inch worse on the 37 model which doesn't sounnd to me like something I would notice. But who knows, maybe the regular Raptor has stiffer shocks or something. Did you notice something like that?

    • @CreampieSamuri
      @CreampieSamuri 2 года назад

      Driven both extensively, and own a regular 35 model. 37 is cool, but the suspension, framework, and tires for 7k are not worth the money, especially for 99% of raptor owners that don’t often go off road. 35 will do everything you need

    I was really hesitant to trade my 2019 Raptor for a TRX... but the fun factor is a massive difference. The only thing I wish the Ram TRX did better was a bigger gas tank. I hate that I am always at the gas station. I believe my Gen 2 had a bigger tank.

    Great video. It frustrates me that Ford STILL won't include the multi contour massage seats in the 801a group. Given its *intended* use, the Raptor would be the top trim to include them on. I also think they should be included in Lariat 502a and Tremor 402a, but the Raptor absolutely should have them.

    Do you know, can you get real, softer rubber snow tires, not just the 3 peak winter rated all seasons or all terrains, in that 37 tire size? And what is the specific size of those stock 37's? (My little Jeep that I will be replacing has 235/70 R16's for instance). How about with the 35's? Oh, and with those coil springs and no leafs at both ends, do you think this actually drives smoother, more buttery smooth, on the highways as say a Platinum? As usual, always useful vids. Thanks.
