    Upgrade, I hope.

    Sorry to hear about your previous ride....ugh. I think you nailed it; the Gen definitely has a little more attitude/swagger where as the Gen 3 is a ton smarter and luxurious. I think the more I push it, the more I'll come to appreciate it and will find its swagger. No doubt the Gen 3 is an...

    Upgrade, I hope.

    Thank you...that's exactly how I feel. Yeah, maybe I'm stupid for not driving it longer without a payment, or trading in a truck that hadn't had a single issue in 5 years, but I don't see many new Raptors on lots around here (for long), let alone the exact look I like, and it wasn't marked up to...

    Thank you! That all I needed to hear. Wasn't trying to stir up a hornets nest with the haters. Really appreciate the feedback...it wasn't an easy decision. Life's short, so I'm driving my dream truck. Have a great day.

    Seriously...I loved the idea of no more payments, but as you mentioned, the upgrades are sweet. Thanks.

    Upgrade, I hope.

    Thank you! That is exactly how I feel; the Gen 2 never gave me and issue and was a joy to drive. My big grief was the Sync 3 system....just glitch and slow. When I saw a Gen 3 that looked just like mine I had to give it a look as I thought it might not be there long.

    Upgrade, I hope.

    Nice, thanks. So far, they feel very much the same...maybe the 2023 has smoother turns. The tech stuff so far is leaps and bounds better in the Gen 3. The point of my post, for those that may have taken it the wrong way, was simply to inquire as to if the Gen 3 was really worth it....I didn't...

    Upgrade, I hope.

    Appreciate the feedback...didn't know there was a minimum engagement policy to enjoy other's posts on the site. So talking about upgrading is now crying? I'm pretty sure most people on this site have had multiple Raptors with similar situations as me and just wanted their opinion (and clearly...

    Upgrade, I hope.

    I need someone to talk me off the ledge (preferably). I bought a 2019 Gen 2 Raptor 801A back in Jan of that year and it has been the best vehicle I've ever owned. I just paid it off two weeks ago and thought I'd drive it for another 5 years...until I saw a 2023 Gen 3 at my local dealership and...
