G2 vs '18 F150 4x4 3.5

[Gilligan]

V6 Raptors outperforming their V8 counterparts
V6 F150's leaving theri V8 competition in the dust

There's certainly an inferiority complex going on, but it's not from the V6 crowd.

Hillary lost but you’re gonna be ok!!! Promise lil buddy!!!

Can't stand Hillary. I think the exhaust fumes from V6's leaving you behind are taking their toll on your brain cell.

Lots of butthurt in this thread, raptors rock, but aren't going to be the best at everything. Sure am damn proud to be one of the lucky few that gets to enjoy it regardless! *(When it finally shows up!)

If you want the fastest truck to the 1/4, grab a base short box, short cab, 1500, or 150, (Or I suppose a ram, if you must...) and LS the shit out of it. (Or get fancy and try any other combo of go fast parts).

You wanna tow? F250 2500 Powerwagon etc.

You wanna offroad? Jeep or atv or SxS. (No seriously.)

You want to look good. (Not going there, lol)

Want most of all of that? RAPTOR. *(Although I hear if the 1/4 is what matters, Lightning Blue adds a tenth!)

You're half right. In order to get that extra tenth, you need to get the stickers too.

I think you got sold and expensive plastic engine cover emblem.

Still faster than your outdated hunk of junk

I'd like to see them throw a pedal commander on the Raptor and see if that makes any difference.

Damn...

Their test is as scientific as if you and your buddy went out and did runs at the strip or on a backroad. I'd say it's just fine. To please some of you they'd need to do this in an indoor temperature controlled, altitude variable drag strip with robots piloting both trucks so reaction time and driver error is taken out of the equation.

The F150 ran faster, it is what it is. Justify it all day long, and however you want. I'm sorry that upsets you guys.

As for suspension, different set ups do different things well. The stock leaf springs on Raptors are known to not be great on either generation. Deavers/Nationals/WSI springs are the known fix. It is what it is once again.

Exactly. All TFL showed us is if a Raptor owner's ego is so fragile that his world will crumble if someone else's truck is faster, he definitely shouldn't street race his cousin's or neighbor's new 2018 Lariat 3.5EB.

[Aaron]

You're the model of consistency Jake. Don't ever change

I swear the gen2 crowd goes by the same playbook as antifa and BLM... Your truck is slow, get over it...


******* ********

I like my slow gen 2. But then again I also liked my slow gen 1 for 5 years
