Great idea sasquatch. You're right, they should have taken a engine designed in 1964, thrown a Detroit Diesel 6.5 turbo on it, and sold it as a brand new high performance engine in the Raptor. Are you really that clueless?Since ford went the v6 route with the Raptor, I wish they would have at least used the tried and true 300 inline 6These things make some serious power on 15lbs boost!
No disrespect to the old 300, only to the sasquatch.

If you want all the tech and luxury interior go Gen3. It's hands down better than the Gen2. If you want a V8 and the original Raptor that you're not afraid of wearing muddy boots in get the Gen 1. I have a 10 6.2 with no complaints. And I paid $28 for it cash.

For me the Gen1 fenders, hood and besides are iconic. GEN2 SCREW is hard to beat for looks especially the front clip. Gen3 front end isn't the best looking but the 4 links rear and fixing the cam phaser issue is worth the extra $$ 2020 Gen2 and the 2010 are said to be the most reliable.I had to bite my tongue. Couldn't find a decent picture of my '14 STX work truck alongside my '13 Raptor but...it's night and day, they aren't even in the same ballpark. '09-'14 F150's in every trim were not easily mistaken for Gen1 Raptors. IMHO at least, when they were both out there you could damn sure tell which was which...and it wasn't just the decals or clearance lights in the grill that everybody is imitating now haha! This is the closest I could find, right after I got mine, wide and curvy where the rest of the F150's were thin and boxy:

But again, I wish I had one of each, I really like the Gen2 & 3 despite the little 6-banger
Umm...what?
