Giving up on getting an allocation.

Good move, its pretty simple guys, if you cant get a ford go to a competitor, they’ll get the message eventually.

you'd really buy a vehicle thinking "yeah that will teach that other manufacturer to do better"?

wow

You are trying to compare a Rebel to a Raptor? Apparently you do drink some very strong kool aid.
The interior of the new Gen 3 F150’s blows away the RAM. Fully digital Instrument display, Recaro seating. RAM still uses analog speedometer and display. The Rebel is a garbage truck.

Wasn't a comparison of models. was a comparison of manufacturers, yes toyota, chevy and ram, do make some nice trucks also these days.

The truth is the raptor is a cool truck, fun to drive and has nearly all the mods from the factory I want. It's also true that the width is a bit of a pain in the ass during daily driving from time to time. I've done time in a dental chair more fun than parking the raptor.

fun while I have it, won't cry when it's gone because the next thing will be cool too. no kool aid means no loyalty to any manufacturer.

If you want to praise ford that is cool. Then call out the ford bs too. The other side of the coin is the base model could have been had for 48k in 2020 (msrp was slightly more) The base model in 2022 $68,675 msrp.

Opinions that matter, those who have owned both and those that are Truck Enthusiast over Ford Truck Enthusiast.

I never owned a TRX, but I sold my 2021 ram limited to get my 21 Raptor. The Ram interior was definitely a bit more luxurious, maybe ornate is a better description. I LOVED the HUD, mirror camera, and Ram boxes…but the feeling that I got in my Raptor was unparalleled!! I say “got” and “was” because I totaled my Raptor when it was 3 weeks old…My insurance settlement was MIND BOGGLING in the best way possible, and I’m currently waiting on my “shipped” 22 Raptor to arrive. I actually ordered the 22(retail)before getting the 21(stock)so I’m fortunate to have had that as a backup. But yeah, Ram makes a beautiful interior and has some great features that I hope Ford will poach lol…but the Raptor has a visceral quality and overall driving experience that is just B.A…period!!!

When my wife bought her 20 Jeep Wrangler I was talking to the Sales Manager about trading my at the time 18 F150 XLT in for a Dodge truck. It was just buttering him up to make her a better deal. He tossed me some keys and told me to go for a spin. Indeed the interior is 10 times better than Fords, especially the XLT. I looked at the TRX when my 3 month wait 21 Raptor fell through the cracks end of last year. I ended up with a used mint 20 Raptor loaded in the color I wanted. I think the TRX would suit 75% of Raptor owners better than their Raptors, lol.

Just go buy your Fiat truck then. No need to complain about a Raptor.

No but i would shop competitors. If you think you get the best price for any good or service by acquiescing to a floor salesman's first offer someone has failed you.
