Raptor for everyday use

[podmed]

I placed a deposit on a '12 Supercab yesterday. Live in Virginia, and would likely use the truck for everyday use. Drive about 150 miles a week, mainly highway.

Anyone use their Raptor for everyday use?

Was driving a Mercedes E550, but wanted something more fun, and not a sportsCAR.

Thanks!

Yup its my daily driver. Use it to get to work, on the job and to get home.

I did not buy my Raptor with the intent that it be a daily driver. In many ways, it was an impulse buy and, at best, was supposed to be weekend fun toy. Funny thing happened though, I find myself driving it almost every day. Works just fine!

thats because its a badass truck and we all just dont want to ever get out of it

The only down side to the Raptor as a daily driver I have found is the high cost of fuel (especially in California). Other than that, the Raptor is great! Most people don't buy this rig for the fuel economy.

I have been told by many people who have driven the Mini Cooper that it's a very fun car to drive and gets great MPG... I don't think you can do much 4 wheeling in the cooper though...

It's all about your needs...

As long as economy isn't a requirement, it's the most well-rounded transportation available and the best bang for the buck.
