I wish I liked the gen3

Well, every Gen 3 owner is literally telling you there’s no orange stitching. I’ll add my name to the list too. You’re either color blind or don’t know what orange looks like. It’s not even an option.

Maybe you’ve never looked inside a 24 or 25, but yea I must be colorblind. You got me chief.

When is Ford going to start leasing RAPTORs?

It Solves all this. I'd lease one for SURE, unlimited mileage of course.


And @GooseTuned would need to partner with them on a tune package that does NOT void the vehicle...

Not a nice way to treat such a beautiful truck.

Is that a kamado joe grill under the snow?

To me they both have their appeals.

Gen 2:

• More pronounced look
• Physical key + mechanical gauges
• No EGR system (means no cooler that will pack with carbon and potentially clog)
• Better aftermarket support
• Factory front LSD (only early year gen 3s have it from what I've seen)

Gen 3:

• 2kw inverter
• 5 link rear suspension + coil springs
• Better tech and more ergonomic interior
• No worries about cam phaser issues

I bought my gen 2 late 2020 for sticker. When the gen 3s came out less than a year later I looked at how much it would cost to make the jump into a similarly optioned truck as my gen 2 and it was over 15k difference in sticker prices. As much as I would love to have the 2kw inverter in my gen 2 there's nothing else that's really a huge pull for me to spend that much more money on a truck that isn't all that different.

They're both great trucks, but if you already have a gen 2 it doesn't make sense to me to move to a gen 3 unless you like burning money and like the gen 3 enough to justify the expense.

It’s just a F150
