Correction: 4A isn't exclusive to the Raptor. It is 4wd Auto. It stays in rear wheel drive until it senses slippage, and then automatically goes into 4wd. When I first bought the truck the 4A was only available to the 2017 raptor during its launch, so that was when it was first introduced to ford.
I have a 2019. Just finished 1600 mile trip to south Florida and back. 19.3 MPG.
This is crazy. I really want a Raptor but I live in The Bay Area and I’ve been struggling with it because I feel like it might be too big. I can’t believe I found this video. Thank you!
My god you are dumb
Ditto. 😂
I absolutely love the look of the Raptor. I have never owned a pickup truck. I own a 2009 Audi Q7 that has almost 200k miles on it. She’s been really good to me. I’m ready to get a used Raptor but am afraid of the huge investment and so many stories of it been unreliable. Cam phasers, sunroof, brake oil leaks. And then others claiming they have no issues? I’m prequalified and have interest in multiple vehicles but have not pulled the trigger.
Audi has even more problems 😎
Very thankful for a great and informative video, but frankly the best part was seeing that iPad case you have.
😆
Excellent. Have my eye on one as I'm typing this
Yes! Warthog from Halo! I agree and love my raptor!
Be nice to own. Want to own. Great review
Awesome ute, absolutely love them.
Looking into the Raptor. I’m no truck snob so engines don’t matter to me. I know enough on the first Gen 6.2L. Your thoughts on the reliability factor of the V6? Thanks
I'm with you...the stock exhaust sounds good. We're at just over 26K miles on our 19'....drive the heck out of it. It makes some appearances in some of my videos as well. Great review!
My dream truck is a Ford Raptor I’m 17 and still in love
You will get it!!!
Same man
It's good to have goals in life. Pay attention in school; save your money; and listen to your parents.
You will get one
if Biden wins these trucks will be banned, you will be driving a little electric car, sorry kid
how deep is your garage? the raptor looks like it fits pretty well in there
why would anyone put plywood in the back row of the raptor?
AYYYY Shoutout to pleasanton CA!!!!!
Thats where this is no way! I used to live there a long time ago.
I have the carbon..recaro blue seats. The interior is 🔥 and so comfy
Is there a rear suspension upgrade or just leveled from the front?
My 2005 Ford Expedition has 4a 4h and 4l
Did you ever experience any white smoke coming from the drivers side front wheel well after some driving?
the 4a drive mode is not exclusive to the raptor, The regular f150 platinum, lariat and limited all have that option.
What is the difference between baisc mid and full option. Have booked basic. Can i add those missing things outside, like 360 cam wide display carbon Fibre, raptor graphics sticker, wide ford logo on the tail.
Nice truck man....dont let anyone discourage you about it....white is the best color in my opinion....👍
I am all about that Lead Foot color
Best truck ever.
Hey, you arent very far from me, i used to live in dublin and now in brentwood. I have a 2018 raptor also in white
thanks for the great review
Nice review!
what type fuel do you use
My 2016 F150 Lariat has 2H 4A 4H 4L.
Fold up the seats for plywood. What’s the box for then
Clearly plywood goes inside and groceries in the bed
okay so 4A means 4wheels drive auto, meaning it figures it out its self or it gives each wheel power when offroad and controls witch tires have traction and witch needs traction, :)
It also means the tires can spin at different speeds so when turning on the road you won’t drag the inside rear tire whereas 4 x4 the tires all go. I like it better in the snow
Kevin Dutile No it doesnt do that. You are discribing a dedicated AWD system. 4A means the truck is in 2 wheel drive most of the time but when it senses a loss of traction in the back tires it will engage 4x4 mode automatically without the need to switch the knob manually like tradditional 4x4 vehicles. Only full time AWD vehicles have tires spinning at different speeds and send power to different tires.
Great video. Very helpful. I am debating to buy a 2020 raptor with 30,000 miles. My biggest hesitation is the reputation of the problems with the engines and turbo. would you recommend buying a used raptor? thank you for your input.
It’s hard to say. I suggest getting an extended warranty if it’s offered. My truck is about to reach 60,000 miles and has never given me any engine problems. However, I am the type of person who constantly regulates maintenance, such as monitoring all the fluids and rotating tires. I do drive my truck hard, but I make sure to warm it up before. If you’re buying used, I would recommend interviewing the owner and seeing how they maintain their truck.
I thought that he was going to say that he didn’t like the truck I was scared I am a big fan of ford raptor
4A is not only on the raptor I have it on my f150 and I also had it on my old f250
Do you plan to upgrade to a gen3 or waiting for a Raptor R.? How much did u get this particular trim?
I do, I’m looking at them rn. Maybe at the end of the year. I May however not get the R. Gas is just too much here in California’s. And this current raptor cost me about 61k I has to get it out of state. May end up doing the same when I trade mine in for the 3rd Gen. Great question, thanks for asking.
@@HotshotTekI think it will be a worthy trade in after using the truck for a period time, in that case you are always using a new truck without major mechanical issues .
Trx gonna have blackhawk shocks instead of the fox ones
Did the Raptor come with this tail gate or did you take of the large plastic pieces across the back that says FORD ?
The plastic is optional
If you get the cobb cai you dont need a tune. The carbon fiber one makes your engine bay so clean
No matter what ppl say you don't need a tune. I had a k&n that threw a code and the cobb...zero codes
It’s actually called 4 auto. When you start to slip, the 4 wheel drive system will kick in automatically.
Yes it’s 4 auto now. The 2017 raptor was the first that has it and then slowly ford out it in other cars later like the 10 speed and etc.
What about air & road isolation?? How good do you rate it??
The graphics on the bed how did you get the blue outline on the raptor graphics
Yes it was from a shop who did it so it’s was custom made
When all that tech ages and begins to fail the price to replace those parts will be insane. Good looking truck tho.
Pick n pull. Shares parts with the F150 🤷🏻 And my buddy 2010 raptors is still going strong. Modern car last a lot longer than ever now.
@@HotshotTek it’s literally the same body as the f150 so I’d assume most of those parts could be fitted or retrofitted to the gen2 raptor if need be?
unboxing video plss😂
How is it on gas vs regular f150
I don’t like how the front doors sag down on any of these 2015+ aluminum trucks
Turbo...sounds expensive. Good luck with that beast.
It's not an 80's turbo, grandpa 🙄
20k miles later and still going strong.
Raptors are def cool trucks. But i went with a Shelby F150 because its rare.
@Keith Westfall Yes I did, Shelby are limited to 500 per year. Not sure what the Raptor numbers are
Another factor in my decision was depreciation. I'm sure the Shelby will retain it's value much better
@Keith Westfall I wonder what a raptor with a GT500 engine in it will be worth.....scared to know lol
@Keith Westfall Picking it up Wednesday. A 2019 F150 with 755HP baja style. It has 2500 miles on it.
@Keith Westfall One is off road, that's what i'm getting. Shelby also offers a super snake that is a street truck.
The ram raptor?
What kind of tires and rims are on your truck?
Watch the video and find out.
I’m 17 and have a 1994 Eddie Bauer Ford Bronco with a 5.8 V8 and king ranch interior and installed a Viken train horn.Can accelerate from 0-60 in 8 seconds with only 245 horsepower and 315 foot pounds of torque, but now my transfer case is restricting my transmission so I’ve got to get that rebuilt, usually get at least 17 mpg without overdrive on which is strange.I did a bunch of weird things to it idk.
Badass truck.
Never knew about remote control-able power seats...How do you operate it?
Can you use Baja mode on normal roads!?
You can, but risk causing damage as it puts the truck in 4H. It’s meant for off road use.
You can put it in Baja Mode which automatically puts it in 4WD High, then use round knob to select 2WD (which most people don’t know ) and then you can safely drive in Baja all day long on dry hard surfaces without damaging drivetrain. Baja mode gives you best and most fun driving experience as transmission shift points are optimized for performance and the twin turbos stay spooled so no turbo lag in Baja.
Hope it's just not direct injecting and got port injection too if not that motor will fail piss on a v6 and turbos v8 all day
Your on 100K subs, woohoop
Thank you so much, look forward more Apple/tech content. This was a warm up for my cybertuck that’s coming soon.
His what?
Your next trip to the dealer will be for cam phaser hope you have extended warranty
For someone who doesn't live in the US, can anyone explain the point of a pickup truck vs say a large SUV? We don't really have then in the UK. Genuine question.
dheaddy well here in the US we have lots of farms and what we call farm country (farms for kilometers) and living out there having a truck helps due to the major benefits of the different 4wd options, a large SUV can’t to that
My mom is from the UK. I was born in the USA. Anywho, I have zero need for my truck. But when you need it, hauling furniture, appliances, etc, then It is nice to have the bed. I like to take the kids camping and the stronger engine, 4x4 is nice. Keeping all the wood, trash, dirty camping stuff out of the interior is great!
In the US Petrol is dirt cheap and even though we are taxed, no where near how much Europeans are taxed. I have a full size American pickup because I chose to have one, haul or tow about anything I need to, ride and comfort are unbelievably good. Also visibility is great sitting up high. In America we can afford to have a few Toys and need to haul them, because so far we’re not ruled by total socialist that tell you what to do or think the rewards of your hardwork belongs to them. Also we have lots of room, don’t think all of the US is like New York City or LA. A friend of mine was from Germany and educated as a Chief, he discovered he hated the food service business and was told by the German Government he could not change occupations, came to America and became a citizen and now has a truck modification garage and doing really well. You might not understand our love for big full size trucks, but I don’t understand your need to be controlled by government officials. If I want to own a gun for self protection, drive a pickup truck or take a dip if snuff I can, my Scott’s ancestors came here to be free. Also if you want a SUV or a Tesla it’s ok with me, it’s your choice.
@@poppyneese1811 I was just asking about the purpose of the pick ups and I think you've done a great job explaining that. Not a big fan of the current UK government, but they're certainly not socialists - quite the opposite in fact. I'll not trying to attack your way of life. Just a simple question about trucks!
All Lariet and above have 4a. It's a different transfer case.
Fuel consumption is the only thing stopping me to buy it
Hey how can I jail brake my raptor ???
I have a 2019 raptor, how can I do Lincoln mirrors
Look up forscan features for f150’s. Just get the recommended forscan obd tool and download forscan (free) in a windows laptop . I have a 2019 Raptor and did the Lincoln fold mirrors , turned the double beep off , and made the parking lights my daytime driving instead of the low beams .
@@dlemm211 thanks for the reply. By any chance do you know of anyone that does it in LA. I’m not trying to mess up my truck by doing it myself.
How much was the car you bought it for? Did you buy it in the bay?
No raptor tailgate??🤔
It’s an option to not get it.
The exhaust note is terrible. I am not saying that is a reason not to buy the truck, but the truth is the truth.
Exhaust sounds like a rice rocket to be quite honest. Have you ever heard a gen 1 v8? Once you have, you’ll never be fully satisfied with the exhaust note of the gen 2.
Your truck sounds like a mini bike
No balls, bet you wouldn’t say it to his face or other raptor owners
I’m a big fan of raptor. What’s your opinion about driver’s height for driving this thing? Would it be too big for a guy no taller than 5’6?
I know Ford offers adjustable pedals and articulating steering wheel on other high end trucks (even my 03 LOL), so this one probably does too. You can adjust it to fit you.
if you're that short, you should buy a Raptor... you'd just look silly in it.
What you regret bro your f150 Raptor?
What year bro your truck?
Considering you have a full Instagram page full of this thing, I didn’t have to watch the video
Lmao, Well before I posted regular stuff on my ig but nobody cared so I posted raptor stuff and others enjoy it and I do too. That’s how that started.
This car is perfect, he is my dream
Congrulations, nice vídeo
It’s okay New v8 Raptor on the way trade that pos in when it comes out
They discontinued the V8, so the twin-turbo V6 is it.
Keith Westfall No but I got something faster than a raptor I bet you don’t even hit the dunes with your raptor probably have it lifted and doors open Blasting music at a Hobby lobby This motor is a Joke 5.0 Boosted will end it and now a GT500 motor will serve it even better and define it a badass truck once again
not even confirmed by Ford... It will end up being a V6 TT Hybrid like the Lincoln called the "Power Boost" which will have plenty more HP/TQ than the TRX. If your ego is hurt by the sound of a V6, tough.
@@svtgrizzwall1997 What do you have thats faster than a Raptor? A lot of vehicles are faster than a Raptor, but I bet you can't take it anywhere off road at high speed. The Raptor will completely destroy whatever vehicle you have offroad, nobody buys a Raptor for racing on pavement...
ventilated vents
This dude doesn’t understand that people want a v8
i wouldn't mind taking his v6 raptor off his hands
I had a 14 Raptor V8 and now have the 20 V6. This V6 is absolutely awesome with 450 HP, 18 mpg compared to 13-14 on the V8. I’m not disappointed.
Just old people 😂
I've had both the v6 is better. But again you have neither
@robinator3202 hows the reliability of the v6 twin turbo?? Any problems?
HALO WARTHOG
New to your channel. I have an 2018 802a short cab and just purchased an 2020 GT350.
I see we both share an enthusiasm for the blue oval.
It appears you’re located in the Bay Area, if so maybe you can help me. I am looking for somebody to wire up some chase lights on my raptor as well as a star link system. Would you know anyone that could handle something like that properly? It’s very difficult to find quality craftsmanship here. Thank you.
Could you sell it for me bro?
Try letting it idle for 30 minutes and see what happens, if nothing then try again
Hello!
Hello 👋🏼
Serious off roader dont ride on 20x9. It's all show when you go to that rim size. SMH....
Good for you I have my 17 deadlock when serious off roading.
What a salesman lol my V6 sounds Great to me LMFAO he's probably never seen a real dirt road city boy no big deal wiring fire recall just put a heat shield u ford guys crack me up
The best sound is from a V12 boy.
I live in Cambodia
Bro could you sell it to me for lowest price bro
lol
😂
I love the Raptor but it sounds like boat! Just sucks!
Did you ever experience any white smoke coming from the drivers side front wheel well after some driving?
Yeah condensation in the exhaust is common and certainly depends on environmental conditions more so. Temperature, dewpoint etc can cause this condition. Usually once the truck fully heats up, the vapor will stop.
