2019 vs 2020

If buying new, any changes with the 20's that a person should buy a 20?

 

[nmp1]

depends. 2 different colors, 801a had several things added, raptor tech is standard with 802a

Was wondering if anything major like a change to suspension or engine. I couldn't really find anything.

in that case no, multi link in development, likely for next gen. the never ending v8 talk is just speculation.

Sync system is a newer version on the 20.

Yes Sync 3.4 vs 3.3 on ‘19 but this is upgradeable. 802a truck should be the same except for new paint colors as mentioned. And you may pay a little more for the ‘20.

i have my own speculation, no V8 in Gen2 and probably not even Gen3, since Ford will lunch all-electric F-150 in 2021 there is no way anyone will buy a slower version of the truck just cause the badge says “Raptor”, and it will be slower cause Ford can’t have their electric mainstream truck much behind the fugly Tesla truck, so it will be all-electric or at least hybrid with the current V6 twin turbos and my guess around the 550HP.

agreed, probably a hybrid or electric assist setup, people dont want to face the future but big NA engines are nearing the end.

I have to think along these lines as well. Unless Ford says people who want to use a truck out in BFE still want to depend on fuel as the energy source. Meaning a few more years of an engine powered Raptor or at the very least a hybrid to add more power. Then an EV for the mainstream truck.

Hard to say however but since they have always made many models to suite many needs, they may have all of these versions for sale at some point.

don’t get me wrong, the sound coming from the engine when i downshift before a corner and floor it on the way out to about 5.5k revs before upshifting is the best excitement and fun that electrics can never deliver...
