This is NOT the carbon fiber package in the photos.

This is a 2021 Gen3 w/Equipment Group 801A.
Apologize new to the raptors (just placed my order for 22). I guess I didn't realize the 801A non-CF package still has a pseudo CF look to most the trim. I've only seen pictures of the CF package. For 22 they force you into taking the rather not attractive $1,800 boat anchor bead locks too. Oddly enough it's about $2,800 extra to get the CF package and your interior looks nice enough for my liking...

No problem…

I think carbon fiber looks good, IF done right and has its place…in a Porsche, Ferrari, etc.

American car manufacturers do not know how to use it and typically use low quality carbon material with poor finish quality. Definitely NOT worth the cost in this application of a Gen 3 Raptor.

Mark me down for also not being thrilled with the carbon fiber package. With that being said, I still prefer it to the interior without it on a 35 truck. The 37 interior seems just as nice. I am also a bit disappointed that the 35 interior's center console doesn't have the word Raptor embroidered on it like the 37s do. Maybe somebody will remedy that and offer the armrest, embroidered, and in black.
It shows it on MY22 that it comes with Raptor embroidered on armrest.
