Modded 2010 Raptor vs. Stock 2017 Raptor

[crash457]

It shows nothing for what Raptors were designed for! Just ticks me off when people are bragging about some drag race between Raptors. Just stupid! First 411 horsepower from a stock gen1 is more than enough to get you in trouble in the desert. My na 6.2 has got me home from the middle of nowhere for almost 4 years now. Will the gen2s end up being as reliable? I guess we'll find out in a few years.

Different crowd for the gen2 I guess. Don't care...

I think someone needs to fill out a hurt feelings report.

Too bad there isn't a way to efficiently go back and pull out all the posts about how this truck is going to suck, the engine won't have power, etc.

yeah because no Gen 1 owner likes to go fast... on the street or on the dirt we're all buying these trucks partly because there is a little adrenaline junkie in all of us. I could care less about the G1 G2 comparison but I am glad it gets going really fast really fast.

Faster on the street means faster in the dirt, sorry your defense is meaningless.

Someone needs to go find a safe place.

+1.

Funny how the gen 1 people are saying speed and more power of the gen 2 doesn't matter yet they are soooo glad ford dropped the 5.4 in favor of the 6.2.

Not necessarily. The gen1 engine can easily outdrive even a modified suspension, off road there really is no need for more HP until you get into the major suspensions with dual fronts and 3.5 or 4.0's in the rear. Just because you have the power doesn't mean you can use it.

I'm not saying the gen2 stock for stock isn't faster than a gen1, on and off road but I garauntee it has more engine than it does suspension. So it can't really be denied that the truck was partially designed so it appeals to the forza street queen crowd.
