Who buys a raptor R?

[wjoutlaw]

Just curious as to who the Raptor R demographic is and how they intend to use the truck?

If I got rid of my Gen 1, it would be for a Raptor R. I wouldn't do anything different than I do now. Just a daily driver with the occasional fun thrown in. Yeah, I'm that guy.

Most are, and that's just fine...

They used the spot for the heated steering wheel instead of the 2wd button…

I‘m not sure why the TRX not having 2wd is an issue?

Lol. Best comment I've read in a while. The saying "People who live in glass house shouldn't throw stones" still stands.
If I'm not misread, someone just stated that most of TRX never seen dirt. But Raptor owners seem to worried more about lacking of 2WD on the TRX. Kinda makes me wonder which truck actually see more dirt lol.

If you’re saying going in the dirt with 2wd is not possible or fun, I don’t know what to say.

Yeah, I'll need a flow chart to figure that one out. Which is the glass house and who is throwing stones here on a Raptor forum? And is anyone worried about anything?

It's somewhat obvious that they aren't selling to serious off road drivers or they'd lose the extra doors. They're building family trucks...... Take the whole family to SB's.

The extra doors do not get in the way as much as the width. I spend 5/6 weeks living out of mine hunting all over the mtn west in the fall. The width really stops you more than anything. That said I fit down some tight trails. If I could limit the crap I bring I would do the ranger raptor if it ever comes out. But you get the comments when you show up to trade it in, what did do you do to this thing. And yes having 2wd is a huge deal.
