One of the best reviews on this truck! Accurate info, informative, and you covered all bases of use for that bad boy. Thank you! Ford said only 5-6 more weeks until my custom order is built, can't wait!
Very cool! I went with the Super Crew in Shadow black with the 801a package, navigation, and spray in bed liner. Ford just pulled my order to begin build about a week ago.
Sweet, hope you get it as soon as possible! About when did you actually place the order with the dealer? (I'm trying to get a rough idea of lag time between order placement and start of build)
Great review, really informative - esp the differences between the various terrain modes and how they interact with steering. Thanks for posting, and looking forward to more!
My dealer said it would take 6 months to receive one I have a 2013 now and they wouldn't receive one just to have to sell off the lot. The Ram Rebel sounds better all the time.
Stefan Markovic I saw one a few days ago on the road. I am so glad I cancelled my order and got an F250 diesel instead. It does not look great in person. Also sounded like a leaf blower
PRESA25 I agree the f250 looks cool but I would prefer to go see them in person at the dealership to make a decision, but it's not like I'm buying one anyway I'm 17
RealTruck.com The way it should be, where we actually get to see the vehicle, instead of all the lame "car (or truck) reviews" where all you see is some guy's face as he is driving and talking.
IT has axles that are not just one straight axle with the differential. It looks like those axles might not last very long with all that added serious speeds and offroading.
Question I would like answered is do you miss the V8. I absolutely love that growl when I turn the key and am worried that the new eco boost wont do it justice.
I agree, being that its the offroad performance pickup of ford, id of hoped to of seen a V8 under the hood, whether it be the old 6.2 or even the new mustang 5.2 let alone offering the 5.0 even like every other f150 series pickup on the market, or at the option from ford of the ecoboost OR the V8 like other models.
The seats are cooled! This is florida so there is no need for heated seats. The Raptor comes with both heated and cooled seats. Thank you! Great question!
When you said fun I pictured you going on ramps and jumping 20 feet or at least 15 into the air. With speeds of up to 70 at times or 40 when going on certain trails. But hey its not your truck and who knows what the owner might say.
This truck is built for people who can't drive put someone who can drive is a truck without all the computers and they can drive circles around this truck

This is the most informative vid I've seen about the new Raptor I've seen
Thanks Pete! We just put on some Addictive Desert Design bumpers. The video will be out soon!
What a great review!!! One of the best I've seen on TH-cam.
as a proffessional driver CDL. great job handling the steering wheel. both hands on it and shuffle steering. also excellently detailed video.

Finally, a ford review without a bandwagon doing it. Great review.
Honestly I like the new raptor sound
Outside cams are very cool, the look of this car is so great
HTBLuVA It's not a car, it's a truck.
Is that color Avalanche? Looks real similar to the color on my 13 that's Terrain.
i was watching a video with ford dealer on trucks, and he said we're not afraid to say we're number one in the country LOL.
Yes the best review so far!
Thanks Tom!
Can't wait for mine to come in. Good god
Such a fun truck! We are at the start of customizing ours. Stay tuned!
Dad gets raptor in a week!!!!!!
So hyped
VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO !!!! GOOD JOB !!!!
This is the only ford I'd ever buy
My dealer said it would take 6 months to receive one I have a 2013 now and they wouldn't receive one just to have to sell off the lot. The Ram Rebel sounds better all the time.
It look's fucking amazing
Stefan Markovic I saw one a few days ago on the road. I am so glad I cancelled my order and got an F250 diesel instead. It does not look great in person. Also sounded like a leaf blower

was this filmed with a drone? I liked this vdeo because it is straight to the point. Plus I couldnt believe that TFL was late to review this.
+Saki630,
There are parts of this that were filmed with a drone. Thanks for the feedback on the review!

Awesome VID man i bet your kid had a blast...What state was that filmed in?
Thanks Nelson! We will be customizing it soon. This was filmed in Florida.
RealTruck.com beautiful trails in Florida, where is that spot???

Such a bummer we don't have them in Aus.
Question I would like answered is do you miss the V8. I absolutely love that growl when I turn the key and am worried that the new eco boost wont do it justice.
If your worried about the V8, get a Tundra TRD PRO and supercharge it
Or I can just hold on to my 2012 Raptor and do a Roush conversion on it. :-)
thats gonna be a beast!

beautiful truck
7:28 he was gona say all this shit😂😂😂
most beautiful car on the road. and I'm positive the only thing that drives as smooth is a high end caddy or Lexus etc
Which is the best ? f150 raptor or f350 super duty ? I love both ones
Louis Romet f 150 raptor is made for off road and f 350 super duty is made for pulling stuff
What about wind noise? I have a 2016 f150 lariat with horrible wind noise around the windows.
same here but only really the driver side (its a 2016 xlt)
Where was this filmed at?
Awesome
In my country even hilux costs that much you are lucky man
is it possible to buy one and pay msrp?
Are the seats heated or cooled?
The seats are cooled! This is florida so there is no need for heated seats. The Raptor comes with both heated and cooled seats. Thank you! Great question!
also does it have locking front axles?
1slippery2 No, it has a Torsen limited-slip front differential.
I'd like to see you put it through 2 feet of mud?
Power Wagon please!
Kliffy77,
That would be a great option to showcase. No guarantees but I would like to see a side by side comparison between the two.
Cool
You kept saying how fun it is but looked so bored and unimpressed the entire time
Joe Katama thought I was the only one...it looks so plain and boring..
When you said fun I pictured you going on ramps and jumping 20 feet or at least 15 into the air. With speeds of up to 70 at times or 40 when going on certain trails. But hey its not your truck and who knows what the owner might say.

Blake Taylor you can turn all the electronic assistance off duh
Вещь!
god I hate filters.
Still needs a v8. No matter how good it is... It isn't great without the v8
range rover will kill this
9:00 best part
