Just took delivery of my 2024 F 150 Raptor. Ordered 2/19/24. Only option sprayed in factory bed liner. The truck is everything you described in your review. Can’t wait to get to Utah to learn how to drive it.
in the U.S. the regular F-150 has gotten so overpriced that the base raptor seems like a good value. For example, an F-150 Tremor is the $80k and a similar equipment Raptor is $82k…
The base Raptor doesn't get the dual valve shocks, sadly. You can look up what they look like. Need to get the package with the 37's and it has dual valve.
You're correct. I have driven them both and I actually prefer the ride and handling characteristics of the 35 inch base package. It feels lighter on it's feet and quicker steering. Now, that is on the street and I'm sure the dual valves and 37s would payoff in the offroad environment.
I wouldnt say sound as good or better than a v8.. i would say they are making a v6 sound amazing. The v8 has a different sound and no matter what anyone does. A v6 and a v8 sound different. But i dont think thats a bad thing. It def sounds awesome.
I own a 22 37 truck. I love it. I’m gonna wait to see what the next gen will bring. The facelift is not enough to make me trade in. I will say something I noticed on the test truck… the sheet metal is horrible. You can see the waves in the “military grade” aluminum.
The base Raptor is more practical for daily driving and like you mentioned you can actually park it inside most standard garage even though it barely fits in mine and need to be in reverse. As for the color, I'm the opposite; I like the darker or neutral colors and stay away from "hey look at me" attention colors.
The 37 package has different seats and carbon fiber in the interior and the dual valve shocks that are different and it’s geared for the 37’s. Different front modular bumper.
15:23 that is not the new dual valve live valve ! You can clearly see it only has one black valve and the new dual valve has 2 that are colored red & blue. The dual valve only comes on the 37 package and Raptor R
Do you know, could I put a large cold air intake into the 35 or 37 Raptor and get a bit more power and maybe one or two mpg better? Is it even possible? Thanks.
Same size as any F150, rear seat space is huge, bed is 5'6", the Raptor does lose payload and towing capacity compared to other F150's, The Tremor is a nice alternative available with both the EB and the 5.0, and some features from the Raptor.
GM is selling customer info and telemetry, GM will tell you insurance company how hard you break, and accelerate. This 40 year GM customer, is now looking at Fords. Are they selling customer data?
Ford didn't have the technical know how to do a twin turbo V8 instead, they just slapped a supercharger on it imstead! They should have contacted Porsche 😂😂🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
@@SamCarLegionlol it has the exact same interior. You just get different seats. And a few “different” materials. The “base” that you call it is an 80,000$ truck. You can’t name 5 things different.
@@vastworldknowledge engine displacement, supercharged vs turbocharged. Infotainment layout, steering isnt the same. Tires are different, wheels are different, shocks, control arms, exhaust system… and on and on and on
