If you're talking about paying interest, I hate to break it to you but unless you're a cartel leader making millions in cash everyday, you're going to have to make a poor decision here and there till the day you die.

I'll believe it when i see it. Nothing official from Ford. It's going to weigh more and I don't believe that HP number NA. But whatever. All I have seen is that same BS speedtwitch article over and over again


It's a guy I talk with that works for Roush, that's telling me that. Even the gas mileage is pretty good,17mpg. Actually that's real good for that motor.

At least with the 6.2 the whole truck was heavy. More weight was upfront (those cast iron control arms and engine block were heavy) but now that they have an aluminum frame what's that weight distribution going to be like?

I love mine(18 with 7000 Miles) unfortunately I paid sticker. The gen 2 raptor will smoke the 6.2 and resale is very good. THere are deals on 18s out there now that the 19s are on the lot.

What is the price difference (MSRP and out the door) between a Raptor vs similar optioned F150?

ETA: there are no 2019 Raptors on Autotrader. The few 18s were listed at $3k under $70kish MSRP. $63k-$67k ‘19 Platinums are advertised at $52k. Even at MSRP, a ‘19 Raptor is about $20k premium.

Any of you pay msrp?


Most OTers pay MSRP based upon the vehicle threads here, regardless of vehicle.

10-4, the new f150 limited is a high dollar truck. It also has the high output ecoboost motor.

That’d be worth the flight and drive back.

want an old g-wagen so I read G-wagen forums. There seem to be a lot of new g-wagen owners that also own Raptors. Are Raptors the baw equivalent of mall-crawling g-wagens?

Good gawd why? G’s look cool & are capable but be prepared to pay out of the arse for routine maintenance. Landcruiser is always the answer
