Why would you not buy a gen 3?

2010 here and all steel I guess that I am oldschool. I like my V8 and metal. Rust is a thing, but I can replace that....just like my women...I like me some curves

Because for the non diehard Raptor fans it’s hard to even tell it’s a different truck than a gen 2.

I’m toying with the idea of putting a deposit for a gen3 raptor at 80k. But I can’t convince myself to spend that much on a truck with the same drivetrain as the gen2 I had. 80k is a lot of money for a v6 (non 37) raptor. I love the code orange and 37 new interior. But then again 80k ?? We are all getting hosed at these prices . I would however easily justify buying a base raptor for 66k ( if I find one) even though compared to my trx is lacking in character and performance. I do get tired of my cars easily so I definitely do see myself in a gen3 in a year from now. Heck I almost bought a gen1 roush for 55k last week

You can wait and get an R for a buck and a quarter in maybe ‘23??? Lol

I'd agree except that its pretty easy to see the difference between leaf spring suspension and 5-link in the rear, unless you are literally only talking about people who know nothing about vehicles. Then again, why would you care what they think? They don't know ****.
