New member here but have had my 18 Raptor for well over a year. 10,200 miles thanks to COVID...problem is I love to drive it but there is nowhere to go.

I was previously a Subaru WRX owner, so yes I still vape, but I got in a lot of trouble in that thing and needed to make an adult decision. I made the wrong decision and purchased a Tacoma TRD Pro and absolutely hated it (terrible transmission even after an orange virus tune). I have always loved the Raptor, didn't want to go back to a car, so I pulled the trigger and have No Ragrets.........not even one letter.

Current Mods:
COBB Accessport (Stage1 Tune)
JLT Oil Separator
Corsa Closed Box CAI
Corsa Sport Cat-Back Dual Rear Exit
20x10 Candy Red Fuel Tritons wrapped in 35x12.5/20 Yokohama Geolander AT
Eibach Pro-Truck Lift-Kit Springs (front level)
Factory Painted Rear Truck Cab Spoiler
Rough Country Triple LED Fog Light Kit
AVS Low Profile Ventvisor
Caliper covers
Rear Applique Reflective Decals for F150/Raptor emblems = +10HP

Those rims are awesome, love that color and awesome truck.

I came from a 2018 Tacoma and there is a night and day difference between the amount of enjoyment I get out of the raptor vs the Tacoma. Even in the Tacoma forums they will readily admit the sluggish feel of it. Also, the fuel economy for a truck that size makes no sense to me, it’s terrible.

I did enjoy the look of the Tacoma, especially the Pros, but it’s nothing compared to a raptor. I bet you got a pretty solid trade in value for it though as it’s still pretty hard to find the TRD pros.

Anyway enough ramblings from me, once again the truck looks great.
