I must say it does seem like the forum has really settled down compared to the great raptor wars of the past....now we can all hate on the Jen3 together as one family:33:

Why would you hate the next gen of the raptor? 5 link rear suspension, and a new engine (5.2 supercharging by all references) seems like positive traction. It will make the Gen2 raptor look like a redheaded stepchild of the raptor family. This, this is what will kill sales if that ecoboost abomination. As you can see from the market, the used raptors (even with 60k miles) are selling around $50k. It is just below the eco raptor value range. You can see the COVID bump for gen 1, but that same bump is not applying to raptor ecoboost.


Hahahaha.....there is no bump for the gen 1 due to covid and no the gen 1s are not selling for 50k. Just stop and go back in your hole troll

Everything you just said is complete ********, as always. Gen 2 out performs the Gen 1 in every way. Get that through your thick skull, nobody cares that you don’t like the EcoBoost. Used Gen 2’s are going for close to the same price as new ones due to demand; why do you insist of spreading false rumors?

there is one thing i disagree with you about the gen 2. while its got new tech and better performance, it lacks one thing that the gen 1 has. driver feeling. the gen 2 didnt feel right as a performance truck to me. i dont know why. bu its all personal preference. im not argueing about the performance side of it all. just how it feels when driving.
