Raptor Regret?

[JustACowboy64]

Why would you regret buying the most powerful and best performing F-150? Raptors are not ideal for towing or hauling due to the suspension, so if that’s what you need in a truck, Raptor is not for you. They’re also 6” wider than a standard F-150, which may be a consideration depending on where you live, work, park, etc.

As far as powertrain, the EcoBoost and 10 speed is perfectly matched to the Raptor; it’s incredibly fast and efficient for a vehicle of its weight and size.

You know not liking a truck sound and not liking a woman sound is the same. That’s why a dude came up with a ********! Strap is on, they all gag the same.

And if the Swedish bikini models weren’t enough, seems like it has a homing beacon for scantly dressed SI swim suit models. Little hard to explain when the dog is barking at 2AM and you find them in the driveway. Huge Regrets!

Hopefully it's the SI models that aren't hiding a sausage.

I feel ya. I miss the sounds of V8s all the time. I can never hear any of them behind me.

I loved my 2011 I bought new, kept it 12 years. In December traded it in and bought a new 2023 Raptor. Have to say it is better in every way, no regrets. If you love the V8 sound do what I did, buy a used 2020 mustang GT, it sounds better than my 2011 Raptor ever did!

I regret it. The compliments and the phone numbers from Swedish bikini models is too much for me to handle. If I were you, I would steer clear. You don't want this life.

What’s scary is you didn’t say females…

Iv always had V8 F150s but have always wanted a Raptor. Does anyone regret buying a Raptor with the ecoboost? Im afraid ill miss the sound of a V8. How does the ecoboost feel compared to a V8 F150?

Are there any other things that people found out after they purchased that they didn't like about the Raptor prior to purchasing?

I’ve had the same, but my Raptor changed my mind.. Only downside is the prrrrr, and the on demand HP. The towing capacity is less also if your thinking of towing your boat or small camper your good, but your gas mileage will suck as the turbos have to run a lot… From what I’ve seen. But for comfort, on par with my Platinums, for off roading def better
