37s v 35s, any hard evidence?

Copy. I suppose for a high speed desert runner maintaining the top end speed may be more important to them than the 10% torque gain they'd also see with the shorter set.

changing gear ratios doesn’t gain or lose torque.

all you are doing is changing rpm at a given speed and transmission gear.

actually with the 10 speed trans, changing ratios is arguably less important. as the truck can find a happy operating range.

It does not change engine torque, but is pure mechanical advantage and does change wheel torque and is directly equivalent to the percent change in gear ratio for every gear, but will result in a lower top end in each gear.

i can support all that.

i’ll leave the effect of gearing on hp to someone else to explain. ;-)

Reviving this thread, now that there few reviews.

I really like this review, comparison between tire packages:

First drive review: 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor gets new shocks, still awes

A five-link, coil-spring rear suspension and available 37-inch tires give the 2021 Ford F-150 more capability, but the 35s are more fun.

Kind of as expected on the 35 vs 37.



Someone at Ford approved this. WTF.

It also looks like this. Not every picture has filters to brighten everthing. Frankly, I like it instead of the boring black/tan interiors that are the same across every car. To each their own!

I can understand blue accents, but the entire seat blue?

And the dash and the door cards

Ummm….That light filter is called direct sunlight.

That blue interior would make me want to put a brick on the go pedal and send her for a ride.
