Owned a Gen 1 & now a 3 thanks

They are cool trucks don’t get me wrong but fast they are not. Don’t live in denial. I got dusted by my old s/c Gen 1 and barely walked away from an old tundra. They need tuning asap (talking gen 3).
I don't live in denial, the Raptor is fast for a truck. To say it's not is kind of stupid.

F150 limited. Any f150 eb 3.5 2wd, any 5.7 dodge 2wd , any gm with 6.2 2wd. There are lots. Hey I’ve had 5 raptors and won’t have anything else but it’s not a drag racer , don’t fool yourself. Tuned makes a huge difference
How the hell did you twist this into a "get something else for a drag racer"? All that was said is a Raptor is fast for a 4X4 truck! To says it's slow for what it is, is just untrue and dumb. Nobody hinted at, let alone said, "The Raptor is the fastest thing on the road! It will beat anything! I dusted a Bugatti last week! Nobody will ever have a faster vehicle than my truck!"

Just a comment on debate technique, guys. If you have to add "for a truck" after "fast", it doesn't help your case. Rather the opposite.
I have to disagree with you. Nobody ever said the Raptor is a drag race truck. It's fast for what it is. If all I cared about was straight line speed I would be looking at a fast car that spent most of it's time in my garage. I'm actually looking at an M4 Comp x-drive right now to scratch that itch a little.

It always gets me going when some idiot complains that his truck that was designed to go fast on dirt roads in Mexico isn't as fast dragging on pavement as some sh!tbox that weighs a third as much. Guess what, guys? It corners like spilt f**k on asphalt compared to that sh!tbox, too. Get over it. It's like me complaining that my dress makes me look less manly. Sheesh. Oh, wait, wrong forum. ;)

If you have gotten to be uncomfortable in your dress, try the link below. I saw these guys on Shark Tank the other night. You can even get a matching set for you and your significant other. Nothing says, "I'm a real man" like a onesie. https://romperjack.com/collections/shop-now/products/the-nautical-pre-order
