Are we really having a Raptor drag race argument implying that the faster 1/4 mile time truck is actually better?

That’s not the dumbest part, actually. Somehow the Gen 2 dudes seem to use this to justify the boosted, over complicated, less than reliable, short-lived, lawnmower sounding engine nobody ever wanted to begin with.

Awweee, here comes the ooga booga, needs big displacement engine to compensate guy that thinks the A in America is silent. I’m pretty sure the Gen 2 outwheels the Gen 1 & it’s bent frame... sooo. Oh wait, you can’t compare stock for stock... what y’all gotta add on to make it an even comparison?

This thread showed an outcome of a race... Gen 1 lost & Gen 1 guys made excuses of course. The Gen 2 is superior in more ways than just straight-line acceleration... That’s a pretty well known fact. Is every last gen model this salty? I’m talking for any vehicle...

For the record, both are still dog shit slow... BUT the Gen 1 is obviously a bigger piece pf dog shit, which hurts its power to weight ratio obviously & causes it to be slower.

You drive a truck with a v6 and live in Louisiana.

...and you bought a Lambo. The douchemobile.

Ouch, right in the gut... Ima go cry now. [emoji23][emoji23]

You drive an outdated truck with an archaic engine... I also drive an F-450 with a REAL engine [emoji41] 6.7L Diesel > 6.2L Gaser that’ll drag your truck around like a play toy... & if we want to get real petty... 6.5L V12 > 6.2L V8 [emoji57]
