I may be a possible Raptor owner soon.

Drive it and decide, it’s a big wide truck and is deceivingly fast. Right now there are no comparison in the full-size truck arena.

Sure I love the sound of my C7 Grand Sport with Kooks headers the Raptor is my daily and I actually don’t mind the sound.

The pedal commander is well worth the $. Rick at freedom Motorsport’s has them on special.

@MGD foiled again.


You will like the ecoboost Raptor. it is far superior to all the other Ford Truck engines for this application.

The truck has not arrived yet, but I gave them 1000.00 deposit to hold it when it does get in.

Shop extended warranties now.

You will need an extended warranty on your vibrator, you wore out the last one so fast.

I don’t care who you are that’s pure comedy right there folks.


PS OP enjoy your new raptor when it gets here and start the mods order your bed liner, cover, pedal commander, schedule the tint guy, wheel guy and enjoy.

I like one thing, and one thing only about “normal” mode on the Raptor.
it gets good mileage.

Otherwise, it’s lazy as F*ck.

around town, it’s ok, but not ‘responsive’. Ford muted the throttle response significantly. where I really don’t like it is part throttle response and when it has to downshift from 10 to like 3rd, or if you want to pass someone, but not at WFO throttle. In normal mode, the truck is like “F*ck you, I’m not downshifting, low and slow is how we roll”

sport is better, but holds gears way too long.

drove one for 20 mins and totally agree , i dont suppose my pc from my 14 will work on a 18?

Dealer just got a Leadfoot in, totally loaded.

I’m waiting on a white one, but they are offering 1200.00 off MSRP if I want the Leadfoot.

I like the color but it doesn’t seem to be as popular as the other colors.

For me, in the sun it looks great and almost has a military type look to it. In the shade all the accents (flares, grill, etc) get lost similar to the black Raptor.

 

[smurfslayer]

I mean, LF is ok, but it’s not black.

Leadfoot is NOT the new black.

LF Raptors are ok but #BlackRaptorsMatter.

just sayin’

1200 under MSRP is doing well. I could live with a slower Raptor than the black ones for that. maybe.


Loaded too...

paraphrasing the Far Side comic

“I say we do it and trichinosis be DAMNED”.

Leadfoot is blah. Black is great on the showroom floor but obscures all the contrast and is a nightmare to live with.

Silver is where it's at. For gen 2 raptors, silver is also the rarest color. Less than 5% of them are silver.
