2022 Ford F-150 Raptor Review // The Nissan GTR Of Trucks
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 янв 2022
- The 2022 Ford F-150 Raptor ($109,439 CAD as specced, ~$80,385 USD as specced) aims to be the answer to all your Baja racing needs. Unlike its fellow F-150 family members, the Raptor has five-link rear suspension, fox shocks, and massive 37-inch tires to help handle high-speed desert racing. It also has the most wheel travel of any Raptor ever made. If all of that doesn’t make you forgive the V6 engine, the exhaust sound just might. Also, with all of those extra upgrades rooted in Baja 1000 racing, how will it handle the road? Watch to see what Thomas and James think! SUBSCRIBE!

I've been telling people that you guys are the best thing in automotive since old-school top-gear. keep it up guys!
You told no lie
@@ImmortalJo3_E46 indeed he did not
I mean no disrespect to Freddie but James is British! He should join top gear with Chris.
Freddie is a cricketer and he ain’t even a good driver.
I’d say Jason and Johnny from motor trend were the best after old school top gear and these guys pick up where they, too, stopped.
@@sastaadmi7037 Freddie has racing license…
The intro to this had me absolutely dying! 💀💀💀 you guys are just getting better and better at your craft! Please never stop making content!
Best Intro ever on this Channel
You KNOW you would buy that CD and jam to it loudly in your car. I would too.
😂😂😂😂 same bro
The best version of Ave Maria I've heard since the Labrynth cover
Ave Miata!
"no you wouldn't because convenience is too long a word"
Lol I'm dying James is on a roll in this episode
So glad James was able to get a couple jabs in! Nice one James! But overall great video guys! Love your content.
Right, he just kept going. You can tell these are good friend.
You guys genuinely put out the HIGHEST quality and most entertaining automotive content on the planet. Now that Top Gear/Grand Tour is dead, you guys are the absolute best in the industry. Please keep up the awesome work! I'm going to get some merch!
Grand tour isn’t dead..? They just released a new episode?
@@vintagefancollector1436 the traditional car review and audience section of the show is dead (I wish it would come back)
@@alexzz1234 i agree with that, although I think it’s best for them to explore new things. They’ve done that for so long. They seem genuinely happy to be sharing all new experiences with the latest TGT season.
@@vintagefancollector1436 they’re also getting older, so I’m sure the new format allows them to make good content without over extending themselves with a weekly show.
I agree that they produce incredible car content but you should watch some Jason Cammisa content as well they’re both great
I love that exhaust. It isn't a v8 and it will never sound like one, Ford is finally leaning into that and giving it its own sound. If they'd give it more turbo noises it would be basically perfect.
Aftermarket open ait intake 👀
@@ismet_sxv cold air intake + blow off valve
@@514aam that is exactly what I have on my truck and it is awesome!!!
Louden the intake/turbo noises and silence the exhaust and I could like it. But, as-is.....🤢
I have a gen2 with corsa exhaust. My gen3 just came in last week and sounds 10x times better and more natural. For reference, I had a 2020 GT500 so I am familiar with a good sounding engine. This truck sits in its own niche with the new suspension and trombone exhaust. Everyday driving comfort is on par with luxury vehicles $100K and up. Looks still growing on me compared to the gen2, but much improved with the new suspension and exhaust, coupled with the new F150 infotainment and interior. I was dead set on the Raptor R mainly for the sound, but do not need a GT500 power plant in this truck, at least for my taste and needs.
“Yes officer it’s stock”
But for real that exhaust note is insane
Guys, it's great seeing car reviews in a Canadian landscape with snow and roads that I recognize and not the typical stuff that would be done in a place like, say, California. Awesome content.
I don’t skip ads on this channel because the amount of effort that goes in is amazing
I'm so glad i accidentally stumbled across this channel a year ago, by far my favourite channel on RUclips
This opening was definitely one of the ones they were laying awake at night thinking 'this is crap, this will never fly'
I already ordered 1 with the 37" pack. I love this Raptor review video and always love these two review videos. Thanks a lot guys :)
Is it the one that you did the walk around on? Great choice
@@Florida_954 No, not that one. I order 2022 with antimatter blue and I hope around April or May. Thanks
Aye grab me one silver or smoke gray!
How do you like your raptor so far?
@@shadowsofgreatness I love it a lot, especially the exhaust sounds. I only have it for 6 month and dealer bought it back
Really good episode, you guys! Thanks for your always-excellent writing, video, and post-production work. Happy New Year to y'all! ✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
I don't know about anyone else, but when I say I want a V8 Raptor, I'm not talking about a crazy supercharged V8 with 900hp that will cost an extra $30-40k over the already unaffordable "normal" model. I'd like a V8 with similar power to the V6TT for similar money, personally.
It’s only 450hp, your basic 5.0 can just about do that right out of the factory now.
I get what you’re saying. Everyone wants a v8 but they don’t understand it’s probably gonna come in around $110,000 usd
Yeah. Trucks need a V8 for so many reasons. Ford is great at making bad decisions
Why want a V8 with the same power numbers tho? The entire reason they went with a V6 is because it gets good power and is a lot more efficient, the only reason to go for a V8 at this point is to push for that 800-900hp point.
@@florisdevin1557 Speaking only as myself, I want the noise of the V8 the most. I also think a lazy V8 will have more long-term reliability over a V6 TT.
I need "We didn't melt the tire" in my life! Great video, keep it up.
There were so many perfectly timed lines in this omg. Favourite throttle house video so far
("Will that get me shot?" was probably the line I laughed the most at)
Love the way the new Raptor sounds!! The Raptor R will be cool but will also come with 20-30k mark ups on top of the likely 15k price jump.
I feel like the Raptor R will be far closer to the TRX in that it'll mostly be a gimmick. Fast in a straight in a straight line with a high horsepower V8 with a beefy suspension that'll mostly be used to boost sales. Whereas the TTV6 Raptor will be still the best desert runner of the three trucks, just not the fastest on the street.
exactly finally someone gets it, you're the first person on the internet that seems to understand this
There’s now 3 of us.
Honestly, basic stuff will help you dogwalk a TRX no sweat even in the TTV6. In my Edge Sport(2.7L TT V6) I run 12's on just a tune. The Raptors and F150 Ecoboosts with the 3.5, can run 11's with nothing but exhaust/intake, and E85 conversion. With an intercooler, simple turbo upgrade that doesn't actually hurt spool time, and some grippier tires, you'll be knocking on(stock..100% stock) hellcat's bumpers. People sleep on these Ford EcoBoost's modding potential.
@@basedemt6608 to counter that point
Throw a smaller pulley kit on the trx with a e85 tune and your over 700 wheel. I'd expect your edge to be quicker seeing how your edge doesn't weigh over 6k pounds. Sure I can concede the EB tuning potential, got a bud from my Roush days with a 450awhp sho. People call it the hood GTR lol. It's in the mid to high 11s
If anything the off road capability is a gimmick. The raptor is awesome, but the trx one upped it.
Great content as always guys! Especially the creativity that goes into each intro is mind boggling(hoping Thomas understands it) to say the least.
Keep it up, lads!
I'll watch any channel you two are on you guys are informative ,comical, everything a person needs in their day to be positive in life! 💪💯
I love these guys. They seem like they genuinely have fun and are friends.
In the 5's 0 - 60. That is still incredible to hear. and it sounds good now.
Less incredible to be next to at a stop light when I really gotta beat the snot out of my 6MT to keep up with a fuckin pickup that weighs twice as much 😂 these big vehicles with silly power that are super easy to use and are starting to eclipse sportscars is a double edged sword for me as an enthusiast.
@@Jay-yg8jj being en enthusiast isn't just straight line speed.
@@Jay-yg8jj Straight line acceleration get boring QUICK. The twisties are where it's at. It's also where the fun of that 6MT shines. Small, light, agile, and close gear ratios. You can have a blast all day and not lose your license. Enter the BRZ, GR86, and Miata.
@@Ichibuns Well, I'm making 400/440 so I can still lose my license but I understand the sentiment lmfao It was more my point that it gets old getting gapped by houses with wheels all day in traffic. Everyone buries themselves up your ass in their F150 XCOMP 900000000 Turbo Gigafuck mobile when you're just trying to cruise.
@@Jay-yg8jj Trucks are the new rice-mobiles. Everyone sold their Honda SOHC with zero mods, and got an F150 ecoboost or turbo diesel, and drive like they're still in 2400lb civics. I 100% get sick of having them ride my bumper because they think they're fast.
Ave Miata truly gave me chills, beautiful rendition! 🤣 Awesome as always guys!
I really enjoy watching all of you videos. You guys are a great team. Thank you and keep up the great work. Much appreciate!
“It’s over 9000!!!” I’m dead. Y’all actually put out a really fun, entertaining, and informative way to review vehicles. This channel is definitely one of the best! It’s dope!
“lol rust” I appreciated that!
These openings are always something else 😂
You guys deserve to be on Amazon Prime along with the Top Gear Boys. Seeing you team up Hammond, Clarkson, and May would be a Sight to Behold 🌟
I’m glad our Canadian brothers and sisters understand pick ups also looking at our neighbors down south ✌️. Can’t wait to be in the Baja dunes.
Clicked for the Raptor review, commenting for the intro - AWESOME! You guys rock!
Been a fan since 10k and very happy for your organic growth thru stellar content. One of the few channels I look forward to.
I purchased a raptor with the 37 package last month and I’ve got to say it is the best truck that I have ever driven. TRX feels very heavy but this truck is the perfect in between it’s fast it’s light feels pretty nimble!!!
Unless you plan on off-roading a ton, why didn't you wait for the F-150 Lightning, which is much quicker?
Lol
@@MrMentalSoul we do a lot of off roading
Whichever one of you came up with “Things Can Only Get Jetta” is a legend. That was my favorite of the Greatest Car Hits
Intro was EPIC. Thank you for the laughs guys! For me ...if I was in the market for a half-ton truck and I was planning to spend over 100k it would be a Rivian.
half ton??
bruh it’s like 3 tons
Rivian barely exists
Sounds like someone converted 1 ton unit into 1k lbs rather than 2k lbs
@@PGVladimirovich look up how much a raptor weighs and come back :)
You guys outdid yourselves, I caught myself still laughing 3 mins after the intro...hands down fav channel
It's over 9000.
I see what you did there Thomas, a man of culture indeed.
Now, it just really seems like I took some time out to catch up with my two boys living two blocks away, and casually talking everything cars as we walk down the road, you guys are the best thing that's happened to cars on YT and beyond for me, I had to say this now, period! (Love from India, always
I like this buildup; first hype this raptor up, then comes the R1T review! 😇
"no you wouldn't cause convenience is too long of a word" LMFAO so hilarious and un filtered - nice jab james !!
Haven't watched one of your videos in a while. I love how this channel is matured. Great discussions and I love the music at the end.
Really great stuff… reviews are on point and you have a great level of humor and engagement to all. Keep it up. Oh, I just ordered my Raptor 37!
1 question. The Raptor has been around for awhile..
Did it meet Or exceed your expectations of what you thought it was going to be like?
They said in the video that it exceeded
L
Props to Ford for making that V6 sound pretty great
Part of it is Augmented sound.
@@NoNegotiations from the exterior
The intro was incredible! Thank you for continuously putting out amazing content.
OVER 9,000!!!! Great reviews! Thank you for providing all the great content!
This intro was something xD
You really got me thinking: wait, did they really made an album?
Nice review as always!
The production of these is insane. Keep it up.
Well done fellas. I love the humor and legit car/truck reviews.
Some people will actually be looking for the mat cd, love the humor that y’all throw into your content! Keep it up!
You guys have great reviews, you really look at the intangibles of a vehicle and point out important details; For example you averaged 21 mpg with this truck in regular driving. I am not of the mind that truck needs more power, driving range is an important feature of any vehicle 21 with what I assume is a 36 gallon tank means 650 miles of range before you need to start looking for a gas station on a road trip. Once you get used to driving the EB engines getting good mpg is not difficult, keep out of the turbo, drive at a steady rate and 20+ appears even in mixed driving. Also not only did Ford put 37" tires on it but they also put 37"'s with 17" wheels, that means extreme air down capability with the Raptor. Honestly your reviews have put the Raptor on my buy list. I have gotten used to the extreme range the EB's provide a truck and couldn't go back to a vehicle with a 400 mile range, once you get used to a 600+ range on a tank it becomes a "must have".
They should've called this the Ford Raptor Raging Flamer Edition🔥. 😂😂
Your intros is what got me watching you guys in the first place. I love the humour and tongue 'n cheek weirdness! And your context has gotten so much better too!
I swear you guys are more than just car review guys, you one of my favorite comedians lol ❤️ always make my day with that Knowledge and humor 🙏🏼
Low key want to move to Canada just to be friends with you guys 😂😂
Keep up the great content!!
Great review and debate. I would have liked to see some snow wheeling though
You guys kill it on every level with these vids. Was cracking up! Nice work
The cr the intro the review the everything, you guys are a powerhouse by yourself👐🏽
Sounds like an golf r32 with a tuning exhaust. And i love that Sound. But i want to have this in a Focus RS.
Sounds like my 08 mk5 r32 golf. Sounds crazy good
i loooove the sound of an r32, was the car i always meant to manage to buy but never quite got there
@@asharak84 still not to expensive. If you want one get em now because there climbing in price
@@nathanwarner6577 but in today these are a bit outdatet. Sound is 1 of the best of all but they are so slow today.
the “you’re this is the miata of trucks” “will that get me shot?” had me dying 🤣🤣🤣
Another great video from two awesome dudes.
Hope everyone's day goes/went well.
Another awesome review! Keep up the great work guys.
That's an angry exhaust. I love it!
It sounds like a GT-R because Ford actually bought a GT_R to use when they were developing the exhaust to make make it sound like Godzilla
You had me (again) at Ave Miata! Thank you for your dope reviews, it's nice to see everything I want to see about new cars and hear my buddies chirping in my ear simultaneously. Bravo muth******s!! 👏
I’m crying with James too, that pitch, purely angelic. 🔥🔥🔥
Can you do a compare if the first gen Raptor to this latest one, please? Thank you guys for your awesome show
Ave Miata, such a winner!
Re: The Raptor, I hope they hybrid it and Lightning it too, there seems to be no reason not to.
There's literally no way in hell Ford doesn't make a Lightning Raptor.
no the raptor is and will always be gas powered for Baja racing
Careless Vespa was excellent, but I think the winner is the hidden track Raptor Round My Finger.
I live in Florida and one thing I’ve noticed with ford trucks here is that when you look underneath the ford trucks of all trim levels there is a varying degree of rust. Some have rust that it’s easy to scrape metal off the underneath parts and literally brake calipers. So always look underneath on any vehicle you buy. Love the Raptor and that V6 rumble is perfect.
I am NOT, in any way, shape, or form, a truck person. That being said, I would 11/10 have one of these. Great review gents!
Thomas is right, it does look great on the road. The only other truck that has grabbed my attention more is the Hummer. Even the TRX doesn't turn my head as much.
I almost thought this was the extra channel
It doesn't get much better than that in terms of automotive content, well done guys! btw, who remembers the old "e46 reviews with T.H." videos?
I have a Gen 2 (2019) and it is an awesome truck….even as a mall crawler for those of us in the Midwest.
Crazy that the Raptor on 37s gets better fuel economy than a 2.3L Bronco on 35s.
Not that crazy when the Bronco has the aerodynamics of a brick.
Love the intro! 🙂
Talking about fuel economy makes me just shake my head. No one buying a truck like a Raptor cares one bit about fuel economy. If they did they wouldn't be buying a Raptor.
Yep anyone dropping 100K on a vehicle isn't scraping change together to pay for fuel. It's a non-issue.
The fuel economy matters, not because buyers care too much how much it costs to run (though keeping that lower is a nice bonus) but because you can go further on a tank. That becomes pretty practical when you actually take your Raptor off the beaten track.
I disagree. If people buying these trucks didn't care about fuel economy then the Ecoboost Raptor's wouldn't have been the sales success that they have.
@@gsxr1189 it appears they are buying the image. I know owners who grumble and not even having a V8 option or they would have picked it. It’s not as if Ford put them up against each other and the V6 “won”.
@@S8ER Yes the V6 did in a sense "win" again the EcoBoost Raptors have a been a big sales success and the free market place is every bit a competitive atmosphere. If owners did not care about fuel economy that would not be the case.
Awesome video as always! This truck is only 86" wide. When you said 96" I damn near spit out my water 😆 🤣 That'd be HUGE!!
This channel is CRIMINALLY underrated
Those are impressive mpgs for a off road truck on 37s.
You been killing it like nobody's business. My dream monster truck 👍
“Miata people don’t even own guns, they’ve barely got spoons!”
As a former Miata owner, that gave me a good laugh! Ironically, there’s a fairly popular Guns and Miatas Facebook page. Keep up the good work!
been watching you guys for years seriously love your craft
This is the best review of the 3rd gen raptor IMO. Thomas and James understand this truck... The Raptor is good as it is and doesn't need a V8, it doesn't need to compete with the TRX, it is perfect as it is!
Great video, gents!
I’d love to order a low optioned Raptor (in Rapid Red - the only way to have no graphics), but I’m not sure buying a vehicle any time soon is a smart decision. 😜
I can watch you guys forever! Great video you guys
I agree on the mirror thing. On most trucks, the giant side mirrors get in the way and blocks outward visibility, especially when you are turning and wants to see where you are turning into. F150s don't have that problem with the lower mounted mirrors. 😍😍😍
The intro was so damn meta... I loved every second of it.
This is the 3rd review I've seen of the updated Raptor that's mentioned the major improvement in ride quality. I'm beginning to actually believe it... 🤷♂️
I agree with the MPG claims. I daily mine and get between 20-22mpg back and forth to work. In pure, unforgiving comfort that can go anywhere over anything sounding like that. It’s the perfect daily.
“Fully torqued” slick…I see you James hahahaha
Ford knows how to tune exhaust sound. This and the 5.0 Mustangs.
What a truck!! Thomas will be torn everytime he takes his RAM out now! 😁
The intro has been taken to another level! Well done gentlemen!
The intro reminded me of when I was a kid and used to wake up in the middle of the night to some 70's music commercials LOL
Me, during the initial launch: “lol wtf, this thing now sounds like a Nissan VQ powered car with an eBay exhaust”
Thomas: “they put a trombone in the exhaust”
Me: “oh, ok checks out”
My wife and I both drive Gen2s and they have been excellent. I don’t feel the standard G3 is different enough to trade, but the Raptor R may be just the ticket.
Every Ram/Jeep I’ve ever owned has been a mechanical catastrophe, so I won’t consider a TRX.
Life sounds tough
Sorry about your bad luck? My Gen2 was lemoned after 2 blown motors and cam phaser issues
Gen 3 > Gen 2. Refined in so many ways.
I have a 18' Raptor. And YESS WE HAVE BAJA TRACK DAYS! Here in South Texas, we go running at a place called Rally Ready School. It has miles and miles of Baja styled tracks, designed just for Raptors. From mild to wild we get out there and run em hard!
how refreshing to see this blooming relationship between two lovebirds.
As far as looks, I actually think the Ford Tremor is the best looking truck Ford makes.
It sounds amazing and it is a great truck but I still love the TRX over the raptor
of course, 110k USD , or 140k CAD. Usually more expensive is better. Problem is , the ram will suffer from electronic problems
Just say you are fiat junk fangirl no need to like that turd over Raptor lol
Love the vibe on your videos
Thanks guys. I have to go for surgery for busting my gut from laughing, your intro was so freaking funny, keep it comming, you guys are great.🤣👍🍻
