Seriously man? You come a Raptor board talking a bunch of smack, and say people who want a V8 in the new version are only doing so because of “machoism”? And now we are the *****? Yea right…. No buddy, I was hoping for a V8 because of what I plan to use the truck for. I’ve been on plenty of jeep runs or events as I have owned 3 built up wranglers and almost bought a fourth (bought the Raptor instead). So I’m not sure what you are trying to say. A ****** is a ****** no matter what vehicle he drives…. and you sir are coming off as one.
If youve owned 3 built wranglers and actually used it for its purpose or went on any Jeep/offroad runs you should know darn well a 4cy, I6, v8, etc have all been proven reliable and useful in an offroad setting.
Sorry if Im coming off as a '*********' because I dont buy into the 'v8 or nothing **********' going on around here but thats just my opinion. Not every prerunner, offroad vehicle, or heavy use vehicle is a v8 simple as that.
Throw the right reliability, engineering, hp/tq, and driver into an offroad vehicle and you can tackle a lot of gnarly shit no matter what the engine choice is. Im a firm believer that technology is a replacement for displacement and that the ttv6 does not neuter the Raptor one bit.
Sorry I do not agree with you.
