Top speed.

Anyone with a tune and the limiter removes have the balks to see what this thing will do ? My 14 did 125. I’ll bet the new one , tuned is good for 135+

135 is optimistic. The 1999-2004 Lightning was drag limited at 140mph and it has far better aerodynamics than the Raptor.

Super charged 6.2 raptors were hitting 145 , they have similar hp at a tuned g2. The g2 10 speed should help. I’m thinking 135 is doable. I may have to be the one that finds out

I think it will do 135 no prob. I've seen 125 in mine and it had no prob avg 115-120 for 160 miles.

Do you realize what youve just done??!! Every troll on this board is being called to this thread now like a moth to a flame!

Troll alert ! The ones I look forward to are the safety nazis telling us this is irresponsible and will void the tire warranty.

If you do a search on my posts you will see that my 2018 will indeed hit 135(+) (indicated not gps verified)as it was still accelerating. The oem tires are definitely telling you (loudly) that you’re going too fast though, so I don’t recommend it more than once on off-road type tires.

131 on speedometer with Livernois 93 tune. I don’t recommend it. This was a touch of road rage on a flat forever interstate. V1 saved me. Lesson learned.

maybe as I get older, I don't have the cajones that I once had in my youth.

I am calm as a Hindu cow in my gt350 at 180 mph ( on the racetrack. don't be an ass and put the general public in danger with your antics on a public road).

In the raptor, Things start getting sporty at 100-105. There is no freaking way that I'd be comfortable punching it and trying to go 30 mph faster.

One wrong twitch on the steering wheel would send the truck ass over elbows.

If you bought a raptor to go fast on the road, you're probably the type of person that puts screws in with a hammer. (just because you can, doesn't mean you should. the capability to do something with the wrong tool doesn't mean that the tool is suddenly the "right one", it just means that you're the knucklehead that doesn't believe in "right tool, right job".
