Hell ya! Thank you for your service by the way. RLTW.

Now only if Ford will pull their head out of their ass and make a SCAB R! That would be the ultimate build!
I would have to find resources and an allocation god willing, doesn’t make sense that it’s an R and doesn’t come in the configuration the raptor was intended. I’ll just have to put a Godzilla in my old scab now that a couple have gotten swapped and pretend it’s a scab r

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, right or wrong. You could have certainly responded and debated without sinking to call someone “stupid” and insult and ridicule them. I think that’s what all the backlash is about.
Opinions are not right or wrong. They’re a personal preference. When one presents their opinion as fact, that’s when it becomes wrong.
I prefer older platforms to their newer counterparts. If given the chance, I would own a 93 fox coupe vs a newer mustang. I would own a gen 1 raptor vs a gen2 or gen3. I would rather own a f-body vs a new Camaro… a gmt400 vs a new Silverado…XJ vs a new Cherokee…etc. Absolutely, I know that they are no match for their replacements, but it’s about the feel and nostalgia to me.
Like said above, one’s personal opinion/preference isn’t wrong. Baseless speculation presented as if it were fact is.
I think that 15 years from now, the market will be a lot hotter for gen 1 trucks vs gen 2, because of nostalgia. Not to say anything about quality or money, just people will get more excited about a v8, as they probably will no longer exist LOL.
Nostalgia is not going to artificially inflate the price, and neither is a baseless opinion. Cylinder count is not indicative of performance. That’s like saying a 305 Camaro should be worth more than a Gran National because it has a higher cylinder count. It makes zero sense.

How fragile is your ego dude
Funny coming from a clown like you who cries like a baby when anyone states facts that contradict your ridiculous fallacies.

The majority of your posts consist of talking trash on G2/3 owners and their trucks because you can’t come to terms with reality. Your precious G1 is old and slow and has been replaced by better trucks, get over it.

I’m sure you can’t though, as you’ve claimed the G1 is an “upgrade” from the 2/3 :happy175:

Lol you’re the one frantically running around trying to protect your fragile ego. All the entertainment is coming from you clown.
You’re a joke on this forum. The majority of your posts are you bashing the Gen2/3 trucks and owners because your “fragile ego” can’t handle reality. Get a life, you’re nothing but a worthless troll.

How hurt are your feelings? You’re gonna have an aneurism if you don’t get those emotions in check sweetheart.
