That's the best looking Gen 2 I've seen yet! To answer your question on which one to buy, I would go with the 2022 for sure.

I really like my step and the chances of finding one on Ebay and in your color are slim. Gen 2 looks better on the outside Gen 3 looks better on the inside.

‘22 & when a tunes available put it on the Gen3 & go faster while not looking like a kid in a matchbox truck - and have coil springs outback & a nicer interior to boot!

I had two transmissions in my 2019 had a lot of problems I have a 2020 that my e.c.m. went out and I'm returning it next week for the Lemon Law

I'm afraid of the Raptor now or my wife is so I just bought a 2022 TRX, I can't find the blue I want in the Gen 3

Anybody else seem to think he wasn't really interested in our answers? Things down here look like that after they didn't sell AND still had current insurance.

What does that have to do with the topic of this thread?

Weren’t you the guy that flat towed your truck and destroyed the transmission?

Very first time out in the country with it and it got stuck in a little marsh spot. Im so used to always having a winch that I broke the first rule and that was to head out without another vehicle. My guess is that the cats heated up and caught the grass on fire. I actually walked away to get my Jeep out there to give it a tug. When I came back the next day this is all I found.

So I just got a 2019 Raptor two months ago. I had it for 500 miles and it burned to the ground. The only thing left was the frame. Now for the difficult decision... I was lucky enough to find a 2022 801A that someone backed out on and it is done with the build and now waiting on shipping. But for the same amount of money I have found a 2019 Shelby Raptor with 20,000 miles. Normally it would be a no brainer to go with the 2022, but it doesnt have the tailgate step, and I fell in love with that. Any thoughts or opinions? Lucky for me my insurance had a feature that pays me an additional 20% of actual cash value to the payout, so that justifies either truck.

Go with the new, the Shelby name holds no value for trade in value; if you were trade it later
