With how easy it is to put 37s on a 35 truck, I don’t see the point to be honest.
If I can find a set of take offs within reasonable distance I’ll most likely consider that. 37 graphics are preferred but not a deal breaker. I don’t care for the 35 graphics.

I own a 2019 Raptor and a 2021 CO 37, other than wireless CarPlay, I like the 2019 35 MUCH BETTER. The 2019 rides and handles better at speeds over 85 MPH and the steering wheel buttons are better placed. I paid 93k OTD for the 2021 and yesterday I saw the exact same truck, without a moonroof, on a lot for 114k.
Bit of Hyperbole here:). Much Better is a stretch. I to have owned a 2019, 21 35, and now a 22 37pp. The only over 85mph handling that is better in the Gen 2 is on pavement cornering. The five link is a bit soft and seems to get a tad loose, but not so much it is a huge concern. Every other area from a suspension standpoint the Gen 3 suspension is better IMO. Sold my 35 in May for more than I paid for my 37, so no financial hit. I prefer the 37. Usual desert runs are faster in the 37 (it stays more composed with rougher roads and washes) I leave my trucks stock (thats why I buy a raptor) with no decals at all. MPG is a tad worse than my 21 with 35's but less than one MPG over all. Since this is my daily driver I would never consider putting 37's on a stock 35. That is just me. As a 5k upgrade (no recaros) it was less expensive for me to get the stock 37's than buy a 35 and put 37's on. Lots of questionable posts from individuals who have no experience with the 37. I offroad 3-4 times a month so it may be a bigger deal to me than others.

That’s exactly what I should have done but I seem to time everything wrong lol.
Had a very good offer on my truck after vacation. $13,000 more than I paid but the availability of finding a 37 and losing my tax credit is what stopped me.

Sorry but making this trade is dumb. You don’t have to drive one to know physics. If you want performance you buy the 35 and if you want to brag to your buddies who know nothing about trucks you get the 37. /thread

Clearly why the Raptor R is only outfitted with 37s from the factory :D

Clearly it’s for guys with a small *****. How many you have on order? :893karatesmiley-thu

What size is on the TRX? Hmmm
Just like the 700+ HP V8! Those small-****** folks just get all the good stuff! Yes, that must be it. : >

Btw, the TRX looks like crap with 37s. One of those odd designs that doesn’t bode well with larger tires for some reason.

I bought my Raptor last year the week of Christmas. Dealers may be more amenable to compromise trying to make year end and monthly sales quotas. I’d shoot for 5k but would accept 7k.
