With how successfully Ford is selling Rs, it’s no surprise they are just gonna start phoning it in.

Oh ya, there is no auto start stop to defeat on the R !!! Good news.
That’s REAL GOOD news. I am getting mine in about a month or so and I was dreading having to use an auto/stop eliminator if it had the damn feature. Glad to hear it doesn’t.

I ordered Oxford white because I hate the metallic glitter in all the other colors, but white is so plain also. I really hate all fords colors. I miss the Cement Gray and jet black they used to have before they decided to make all the paint colors look like a rap star with gold glittery teeth.

I got my 23’ 37pp PPFd to be stain black as I couldn’t stand the gold glitter in the paint, it was hideous.

I I’ll probably PPF this white one satin to make it a little different and protect the paint a smidge better when off-roading.

I'm on my way tomorrow to check out an R with a relatively modest ADM ($7500). Contacted the dealer months ago and I get first stab at it. I have my own financing (Navy Fed, 4.49) and a good trade (2023 801A, low mileage). I've been searching around for months and now that there is a great chance I could drive home with one soon, I'm getting cold feet because it is a stupid amount of money no matter how you cut it. My current Raptor is great; has great wheels, full body PPF - those who have already upgraded, is it worth it (subjective, I know)? I've convinced myself to walk if they attempt to hose me on my trade or anything else and honestly, I blame it on the doubt I already have.

lol, I have had the same feeling. I have a black satin PPF with KMC wheels 37pp and I am limit shit, I need to come up with $57k on top of this truck to get the R?

I have been tempted to keep them both, if I can’t get over $70k for my 23’ with 28000 miles, then I’m keeping it.

It is absolutely worth it for the performance difference. I went from a gen 2 to a TRX to an R. It’s a fun truck. I like it more than the TRX.

However if I had 10k in a 23 that I will never get back in upgrades and had to finance it at all I would pass and enjoy the heck out of the one you have. This truck isn’t worth getting and losing that much money. My 2 cents.
