Beautiful truck!!! It’s simply gorgeous. 0-60 in 4 seconds for a vehicle that large is amazing. I’m not a truck guy but love everything about this one. The price will keep me away but thanks for bringing this to us Joe. 👍 Happy Veterans Day to your dad and all my fellow vets on Raiti’s rides.
Everything was going great until u mentioned the price. I was gonna lean toward this if it came in around $90,000. But for about $20,000 more than the TRX, it needs an interior to match. Still think the Raptor looks better on the outside 👌.
My dad bought a black velociraptor 600 a year ago. Best looking truck out there, performance is good but not as advertised. On a non prepped surface, 0-60 will consistently clock in at about 4.8 seconds. We put the stock exhaust back on because the Borla was just a little too loud. Not worth the price tag but definitely a unique driving experience!
Your reviews are always entertaining and informative. If I didn’t already have a Ford Raptor, I would travel to your dealership to buy one from you. I purchased my lead foot gray 2020 Ford Raptor last June and shipped it to Hennessey Performance 2 weeks later. The stock Raptor is pretty amazing. After a 30 day makeover, I received delivery of my VelociRaptor 600 OffRoad package. It has an aggressive look with a powerful, fun to drive 600 HP engine. The blow-off valve sounds sick. The Borla S-Type cat-back exhaust will let you sneak relatively quietly past all your neighbors homes, then bark like the meanest dog when you get into the gas. I prefer to drive it in the Sport mode all of the time, because the exhaust and shifting are more aggressive. The engine tune, large inter cooler, exhaust, wheels, lift, Fab Fours bumpers, Rigid lighting, Amp Research power running boards, Brembo Brakes, Hennessey wheels, and the 37” TOYO tires are all quality components installed on the VelociRaptor 600. This has been an amazing truck to drive. You get what you pay for in life. Thank you to Ford Performance and Hennessey Performance. Completely satisfied after almost 1 year of ownership.
This will be quicker than a TRX because of the aluminum construction This probably weighs one ton less than a TRX The problem is 150 HP shouldn't cost twice a Raptor costs Poor value from Hennessey
NOPE! That's just your opinion man, opinions are like assholes.. you know the saying. The TRX appears to be about a half second quicker than this truck, look it up.. www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a34450961/2021-ram-1500-trx-by-the-numbers/ hennesseyperformance.com/vehicles/ford/f-150-raptor/2017-ford-f-150-raptor/velociraptor-600-twin-turbo/
Just traded in my 2017 Raptor for a white on black 2020 Velociraptor!! Wow!! Huge difference. From the Hennessy wheels to the start up sound. The Velociraptor gets so many head turns than my old stock Raptor!!!
That is gawd-geous.. Still a huge Raptor fan, but that was before the TRX.. ya know, mopar. Doesn't matter since I can't afford either, and local streets are tight near me. Anything bigger than my Durango is annoying.. Good job, I enjoy the channel!
you have to keep in mind they offer not only performance but as well as a warranty, you might be able to build a similar truck for less but the second you start throwing mods at it you toss the warranty in the trash
David c. Ford performance makes a tune, and performance parts for it, full warranty in tact for less money.... and Hennessey is NATORIOUS for not backing warranty
Before I even watch the video, you're easily becoming my favourite car reviewer. Keep working hard Joe. Shout out to you from Jamaica. Side note, Victor does a better job than Mrs Raiti. Shout out out to her for filling in though
John Hennessey and Ford did a great job! A LOT OF TRUCK. A LOT of power here! THAT TRUCK IS BAD TO THE BONE! Joe, Crown Vic Thanks for bringing this to us! RIDE ON!
JOE ~ the front bumper is brutal. so freaking nice. love it. it's dang tough. I agree - everything is aced exterior wise - except the lack of racing rear fog lights, if you're racing off road - trails or sand you would want the guys behind ya to know where you're at so they don't slam into you. lot's of dust, debris, etc. remember Chico- Stix? yummy. this is a great upgrade, the back seats look like a ton of room. enough power & performance. - tony
Joe, Love your stuff, brother. That is definitely a cool truck. Although I haven't asked her, I'm pretty sure my bride would balk at me buying a truck which literally costs more than my first house. I get to live vicariously through your videos though. Keep up the great work.

I don't like these high HP V6 Turbo engines. Don't pretend it's going to last like a V8. Just like Roy in Blade Runner. Tyrell: "The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long - and you have burned so very, very brightly, Roy." But, I like the Ford designs and the rest of the truck. So if they just put a V8 in there, I'd consider it a win win.
@@RaitisRides Mustang do not have one I’ll Corvette does I’ll Corvette got what I mustang don’t have so we tongue about because all you know that I know that the mustang can’t beat I’ll Corvette like that
I love the Ford raptors I always wanted one. But when your talking about Jurassic park you have to give the respect to Jeep! That’s the original vehicle of the movie and the Jeep commercial that came out where they incorporated the movie that pretty much sold me lol so I bought a Jeep about 9 years ago now coming from a ram 1500 to a small 2 door wrangler wow what a major difference! However after owning it for that period of time I had no idea that there were actual clubs and events that people do for them in my local area. I did some research and I couldn’t find anything for the raptor 🤔 haha. Needless to say very good video even though I am a huge a Jeep fan, one day I will own a raptor for sure!
The Ford Raptor is Actually my 2nd Dream car. I could probably tow 2 drawn custom Jetskis with it. Black Cat Girlfriend: A Date Life On the Beach and the Ocean Baby!
Hey Mr Twinkie is it possible to do a review on a 2016 Lincoln AWD 3.7L V6 honest thoughts on the front PTU and How in the HE🏒🏒can Ford Certify the car knowing at 30k the PTU BLOWS UP
4:32 - those bolt heads are called a " bead lock" style wheel. I don't know if these are functional or not but if they are they clamp the bead of the tire allowing you to run very low pressure. That gives better traction in some terrain. Most are just for looks,just wanted to point that out. Btw your yelling so loud its coming thru the mic distorted. The sound gets amplified, no need to yell lol.
Man you gotta have some BIG 🥜'S to test drive $118k truck, last thing you want to happen is have someone accidentally run into you...keep up the good work and safe driving Joe 👍
I always think of what $118,000 can buy me. There's no denying this truck is a beast and would be fun. But I'd probably rather buy two vehicles instead. A new Lexus RC F and a new Toyota 4Runner or a used Lexus GX 460.
Beast and I really like it I see the Name Hennessy and I'm like sweet but takes alot of loot to make that truck so EFN Sweet and that's one of the things I lack is loot loot like that..
$118k and a stock interior? Why is this over looked? It’s where I spend all the time with the car! Only thing in the interior that makes me feel special is the gas pedal...
The problem is when you put Hennessey Raptor on the Dyno ... numbers dont come up to 600HP. Proven by the owner. First ones they did have bigger Turbos and they did 600HP but reliability issues came up. After that they switch only to Bigger Intercooler, Cold Air Intake, Exhaust and Tunning which in reality on the Dyno doesn't put out 600HP.
Know the price is substantial but... if a electric Porsche Taycan can sell out before hitting the streets, there’s somehow buyers for any expensive vehicle.
This is how Ford should have done it in the first place. The Velociraptor is sick🔥🔥🔥
AGREED!
Your missing the v8
Idk about that. They had no competition in the market so they weren’t pressed to show their hand in regards to all the amenities the could offer
...but with a V8.
SAVE THE V8!!!

Well it’s Hennessy that’s making the trucks upgrades, not Ford.
Love your videos! Good luck with the storm, I’m up in Port Richey waiting for it.
Thanks Brandon! I hope you stay safe man!
$118K? I dont know about that. Lol
I feel you man!
For that kinda money Shelby Baja raptor all day
These are the best videos ever, raiti never disappoints 🔥🔥❤️
You should review the ford raptor v8 supercharge by hennessey performance, you will love it
I agree with you Jonathan! Thanks for the heads up!
Short answer: No
Long answer: Hell no
Hennessey also tunes the Raptor with a V-8, the Velociraptor V-8 produces 758 HP, which is more than the TRX.
Well why Ford didn’t make it from factory like ram??? They knew the hellcat ram was coming out and they kept a little v6.
Lol, a Veloci-Raptor doing the twisties. Only on Raiti's Rides. Great review as always!
My 2016 F165 sounds like an 87 Grand National.
Very true!
Good choice of truck to review Joe, & funny Jurassic Park references! lol
OMG i can't believe the size of this beast look at how it compares with Toyota Sequoia at 12:37
Joe which one is faster the stock Raptor v6 EcoBoost and the Toyota Tundra v8...?
What a Great Truck!

Fingers crossed we should be fine. Thanks for saying that!
love this 2020 Velcoi raptor I'm getting this raptor it's a beast 💯🙋🙌

Sounds like a beast, and drives like a sports car.
Does it have an worse or better fueleconnomy?

That’s my dream truck
We still Need and Want a V8 Raptor... It doesn't matter how much HP the V6 has, the V8 is what we want!!
that front bumper is from hennessey?
the ram trx has nothing to worry about since it has more horsepower and cost less. ALSO, wait until Hennessey gets their hands on a trx
Wow! Real nice Joe.
Can convert to right hand drive?
Man you gotta have some BIG 🥜'S to test drive $118k truck, last thing you want to happen is have someone accidentally run into you...keep up the good work and safe driving Joe 👍
That baby is goin to need 2.5 oil catch cans! Instead of saying "on throttle" when you're in the baby, you could say, "Crack open the waste gates!"
The raptor is actually wider than the Hummer H1, a bit of trivia there. That’s pretty wide....

The problem is when you put Hennessey Raptor on the Dyno ... numbers dont come up to 600HP. Proven by the owner. First ones they did have bigger Turbos and they did 600HP but reliability issues came up. After that they switch only to Bigger Intercooler, Cold Air Intake, Exhaust and Tunning which in reality on the Dyno doesn't put out 600HP.
