That only helps you AFTER it’s been stolen. And it’s best to have more then one AirTag. One that’s meant to be easily found, and a few more that are damn near impossible to find without tearing the whole truck apart.

I believe it was closer to 800hp that it was/is good for on stock internals. A legendary engine for sure.

If it was as simple as performance then we’d all be driving a Model S Plaid. But there’s more to it when it comes to enjoying a fun vehicle. And I don’t think I needed to state the obvious and mention how much better the performance of a TRX/R is compared to the Ecoboost Raptor.

Do you really think that I (or anyone driving a TRX or Raptor R) give a damn about MPG? Be honest with yourself. If the TRX and R sound like a fart noise to you, the Peasant V6 Raptors must sound like a v a g in a fart by comparison. And yes, I meant to call the 35 V6 Raptor a “peasant”...

The V6 Raptor isn’t all that quiet actually. It just makes noise in all the wrong ways. I was legitimately embarrassed to get on the throttle when people were around when I had my Gen 2. It sounded like a riced out Nissan 350Z actually. The performance of it (after a stage 2 Goosetune) was...

Will this new Removed Hellcat Option sound just as bad as the Ecoboost V6 Raptor? Probably. But I see the appeal in its base price, and it seems like the logical competition to the peasant 35 Raptor.

I’ve always put electric tape over the photo light sensor on the center of the dash so the lights are always on. Technically, they are no longer auto that way. Not sure if that helps.

I like the pipes coming out back being visible. Today, no exhaust tips = EV… definitely not trying to replicate that look.

I’ve had the Bak MX4 on my Raptor, and decided to try the X4S on my TRX. I personally think the MX4 is better looking (it’s a shiny finish opposed to the matte X4S) and seems more heavy duty then the X4S. I wanted to try something different, but should have stuck with what I knew I liked.

The fact that the R will continue production longer than the TRX (or so it seems) will win Ford a decent amount of TRX owners who dumped their V6 Raptors in the last 3 years back. RAM is sticking the TT I6 into the next so called TRX they appropriately named the RHO (Removed Hellcat Option)...

If the Hummer had GM’s 6.2 Supercharged V8 from the Escalade V, it would be badass truck in my opinion.

Does the 24 actually have more HP, or did I miss something?

That’s a good question, and one I hope to put off for a long time since thinking of the death of S/C V8’s is a depressing thought. I used to always like Ford trucks, but I do love my TRX way more then just the V8 that made me get it in the first place. It would be a tough choice, and...

What makes you think that? I went from a 19 Raptor to a 23 TRX (because of the Hellcat and I paid $11k under MSRP) but have no interest in going to a Raptor R unless it’s price would be at/below MSRP, something I don’t think will ever happen. After having a TRX, the V6 Raptor is completely out...

I agree with you 100% I had a 2019 Raptor with a stage 2 Goosetune and TCM tune that ran like a ***** ape. I switched to a new TRX and was extremely disappointed in the sluggish feel, until I put a Banks pedal monster in it. The TRX just keeps pulling all the way to red line, unlike the EB...
