Sold my '24 R, here's why...

I suspect that it would be a once in a lifetime experience. But it's moot because I don't see any way that you could get there with only 700hp. It's got the wind profile of a motorhome ....

You'd be surprised. A dude took a stock TRX with some higher speed rated tires and went 177mph on the autobahn

Based on the instability that cropped in suddenly at 130 on my tuned gen 2 on 35s... I really can't imagine how ponderous things would get on 37s at 160....I definitely think it would go 160+ easy.

I’m not sure how you get 8.6mpg out of an eco Raptor. Is your commute rock crawling the Rubicon trail?

Even towing a 5-6K lb camper in hills at 65-70mph I still got 7.5. 8.6 is if you do cold starts at -10F and drive 1 mile and park it....lol Or literally only use both the gas and brake petal to the floor during the entire drive.

I used to get 9-10 out of my Gen 2.
