Went from gen 2 to gen 3 37PP. Was looking at TRX and realized its fun for a few seconds then i wake up and im in a dodge ram.

I love the 37PP. Not that the raptor is a “practical” truck but its beyond liveable and ready to go offroad. Feels way more than a 1-trick pony. Guess it depends on what you’re doing. 250 strikes me as a “work truck” for hauling or towing at the job site. Do you haul big shit over 7-8K?
Awesome feedback! Thank you! Have you towed anything with your 37? Does it tow any different from the gen 2 stock? Also, notice any power difference (decrease…) around town between the two? Thanks!

I had a 2019 Gen 2 before jumping to a 2022 Gen 3 with the 37PP. I also test drove a 2022 F250 Platinum Tremor before deciding on my Gen 3. The Tremor was nice enough on the inside, especially with massaging seats and the ride height, and diesel power. Diesel trucks are pretty sweet too, but I knew I would be in for ~15-20k in mods to get it where I wanted with a full Carli setup from CJC. The F250 was very stiff, but that is expected as the F250 is a work truck at the end of the day and especially without any of the Carli mods I would want done. In the end, I decided on the Gen 3 as I do not tow much at all to warrant the added cost for the F250, and living in San Diego any of these trucks would be difficult to park almost anywhere but my house lol

The Gen 3 compared to the Gen 2 is somewhat different, but the overall ride and quality is so much better on the Gen 3. I made the jump to a Gen 3 with the 37PP because I wanted a truck that came stock with the 37s and not to end up needing to endlessly modify a truck to make it be the way I wanted for a daily that I could bash on at the dunes or down in Mexico. The Raptor is just a great truck from the factory as is, and the Gen 3 made that jump so much better.
Do you tow anything? I’m definitely leaving to the 37. Right now it’s between a trx and a 37 I think

Just a 3-4Klb pando 2.0. No sag but i replaced springs all around. Does fine honestly. No noticeable loss at that weight. Never towed with gen 2.

You replaced springs on trailer or truck?

Traded my 2022 F250 tremor in for 2023 37 Raptor. F250 was a beast of a truck. Overkill for me. Zero regrets on trading the 250 in for the 37. Also..was hell bent on getting R. After driving this for almost a month…my R craving is dwindling due to my satisfaction of the 37.

Awesome! Congrats! Do you tow much? Which motor did you have in the 250? Yeh, I'm leaning toward the 37 or trx. thanks
