John 928 I have a 802a package and they are electronic. Button is on the door with other mirror controls. I always use it while parking in town due to width. Also, nice to have when squeezing into smaller spots off road.
This is the truck I have, and let me tell you it is pretty good. I drove the last two weeks in the mountains between north Wyoming and north Montana. I drove through all the off road options, Including 1 foot of snow, and the truck behaved as intended. I suggest the truck to all you out there that like and need to drive off road.
Raptors is a nice looking truck until 2022 Toyota Tundra will blow the competition out the water my favorite is the full retractable back windows no manufacturing have that stand out from the rest
I like that you brought up "sleeping in your car" many times for a $70k truck... helping make the case for "you can sleep in your car but you can't drive your house!" 😆
Actually you can get older f150s with a supercab and 5ft bed, I guess those were from left over trucks that were just thrown together, still cool and would be an awesome truck to have.
I’ve heard from several mechanics that while eco boost can provide excellent power it comes at a cost. That cost being premature engine wear/tear leading to expensive repairs.
My buddy has a 2018 raptor, he drives all over the Country for his job. He’s very well off. Has over 200,000 miles on it already. Actually the only problem he’s had with it was the rear end.
As my old buddy use to say, I really like that truck, I'm gonna get me on them one of these years when the price comes down on them. lol RIP old buddy.
You mentioned that you experienced issues with the transmission. I’ve had my Gen 2 Raptor for over 2 years and at first I was on the fence with the transmission; however, what I came to realize is that the truck adapts to the driver after some time “learning” your habits and driving style. I normally use Sport mode and have a heavy foot, so it’s adapted and I cannot remember the last time it didn’t shift properly and aggressively when I demanded it. You have to use the driving modes properly to obtain the full potential of this beast and allow it to adapt to you over a little time.
First person I have ever heard say "you can only fit 2 car seats in the back." Doesn't seem like a big deal, but I appreciate knowing the small things like that. Great review!
If I'm going to dream, I want the 2020 (2019 will also do lol) F-150 755hp Shelby Super Snake, which is nearly double the cost of this truck at $120k! Brian Shaw (4 X World's Strongest Man) just purchased 1 and he showed it off the day it was delivered by an Indy Hauler from Kentucky. It's an amazing vehicle and they are numbered and he has #2 and #1 isn't even on the road yet as it will be auctioned off. No telling how much some rich bloke (or woman) will pay for the privilege of having #1. This truck is also very nice....and expensive lol.
I own a 2018 and just hit 50k miles. I had hesitation at first but Ford Performance did it right. Remember, this is a baja truck. The 3.5L ecoboost while having obvious turbo lag, still does extremely well and will beat the gen 1 Rousch Raptor (600hp) any day. So while opting for the gen 2, I get more hp, torque and more bells and whistles than my Mercedes SUV. The other reason the 3.5L works is that it’s smaller and lighter giving the truck less weight and a lower center of gravity for better overall handling and performance. If my only complaint is the exhaust sound, I’m okay with that. Did I mention the turning radius is amazing? Which you will need for a super crew truck.
When I'm older and I can buy this, the price should be down a whole lot which is perfect because this already has enough upgrades since the original versions to last a lifetime
On the c7 corvette it’s a sport car and it has 450hp and I always fantasized a truck with corvette like performance this raptor is awesome the ram also is pretty awesome with its 700hp. I want a spacious truck with insane sports car like driving I think it exists now...
That red stripe on the wheel actually has a purpose. When off road, you need to know where dead center is on occasion, without getting into too much detail.
"Close to 97 inches wide with mirrors." So, same as a regular F150. Interesting how many don't know that the cab (including mirrors) is just a regular F150 cab. Not any wider. The front and rear track are the only things wider than a regular F150, and the wider Raptor-specific fenders have to accommodate. But when you include standard mirrors, it's all the same width overall. Guys that buy a regular F150 and throw on zero or negative offset wheels are the same width essentially, minus the bodywork. To put another way; a regular stock F150 and an F150 Raptor fit through the same hole in a wall if you don't fold the mirrors on either one.
I like the look of this ford raptor, but only one thing I’m backing up that is gas mpg. It has a small engine but no good gas mileage. I think ford needs to focus on improving on mpg in this good looking track.

is the side mirrors electronically controlled for folding inwards/outwards or is it manual?

The fenders don't "bulge out to accumulate the massive tires" ...they "accommodate" the tires.
Nice Video.
Junk/Trash for around 70k and up to 120k lol, i better get nice luxury Mercedes for this kinda cash.
Idc what anyone says. This look will never get old.

I watch ford f150 videos everyday before going to sleep. This is my dreamcar.
You will have it .
It's not the right truck for most, but that's not the point of buying one. It's badass!
This is my dream truck, couldn’t agree with you more!
How much this in your country?
@@bounsongkanyaphom9555 The Supercrew Cab, the one i like, would start right around 68k-77k I’d say

Mine too
Same tbh
Just paused the video to say thank you for these videos. Just the little details you show, very 👌🏾 cheers mate!
Karl, I appreciate that. I try to make my videos as informative as possible without being too boring :).
It sure stands up to its name , the beast of all beasts , luv it
This is the Truck I plan on purchasing in the coming years
I not a Ford guy at all but this the best truck ever!!! So awesome!
If Batman drove a truck this would be the one.
I doubt it
Yup... :-)
no he drove the jeep renegade lol

I think Batman have found a new truck, the Tesla Cybertruck.

Unless you live in a RV trailer or something like tht 😂
mmm for whatever you want to do back here you can do it. mmmm. i'am sold!
Yet your house will appreciate in value.
By far the best review out there and i have seen them all
Jesus, it's like the Space Shuttle in the Ford Raptor! Can't wait to get the chance to own one of these beasts
This looks like a great truck for twenty-eight U.S marines!

You're on a roll George! Keep up those great reviews!
Thanks bro!
Need this NOW!
We’re all George .just bought a Raptor because of this video .🎉
Actually you can get older f150s with a supercab and 5ft bed, I guess those were from left over trucks that were just thrown together, still cool and would be an awesome truck to have.
I meant to say supercab, obviously the crew cabs can get the 5ft bed, that was a mistake that I overlooked.
But it was retired before the coyote was offered;(
JeepCherokeeful I don’t think it was an actual option you could order it was probably just left over cabs and beds thrown onto that wheelbase
Hey George. I’m a car enthusiast too. Followed you here from your CRU brother. Thanks for making another quality channel.
Great comprehensive review 👏 This is how it should be, no nonsense, no unwanted music blah blah blah. Well done my man ✅
A minute in , yeah it’s the right truck for me 😂👌🏾
Loved these ever since 2011
this is my dream offroad pickup.
I’ve heard from several mechanics that while eco boost can provide excellent power it comes at a cost. That cost being premature engine wear/tear leading to expensive repairs.
Not really, ecoboost engines had a few issues when the tech first came out in around 2010, but they're pretty solid now.
My buddy has a 2018 raptor, he drives all over the Country for his job. He’s very well off. Has over 200,000 miles on it already. Actually the only problem he’s had with it was the rear end.
What a beautifull pickup❤

Can this be shut off?

YOU DONT NEED LATCHES FOR THE MIDDLE SEAT. YOU USE ONE OF THE LATCHES FROM EACH SEAT TO CONNECT A CAR SEAT IN THE MIDDLE.
I can’t wait for the 2021. I’m hoping to pick one up later this year

Awesome! Ford Raptor. Excellent design Excellent review as well.
Love at first sight with the raptor what a Beast
Very Good and Detailed Review. Good Job man!
This is a badass beauty. I will get one of these soon.

Thanks Ryan! Most reviewers only talk about how great the raptor is off road but most people buying this will be driving it daily often with kids. :).
Hope next Everest will have some of those designs :)
What is Everest?
@@陳松勇-s6v Ford's SUV , it's kinda explorer for Asian market

Yes .I thing same you
Simply a dream come true Truck !!!
I can imagine doing some mods on this and ripping through the sand dunes, epic.
Best truck of them all. A man’s man truck 🔥
I have the 2000 Ford F-150. No I have my eyes set on this badass truck. Can’t go wrong with an All American Ford
It's so beautiful, it's my favorite car
Had mine for a week, fing love it
Have there been any issues with parking lots or driving down narrow streets?

Fantastic review, my friend!
My dream ride
I got mine a week ago. Lead foot color and I’m loving it!
I'm jealous
They really need to put a supercharged V8 with 700+ hp. I'd honestly like to see around 750-825hp
Yeah but the raptor is already very expensive. Can’t imagine the price with a supercharged v8.
Rebel TRX is coming

I want one of this badass truck..
As an owner of one, you are absolutely correct. Only thing that sucks is the Sync 3.
Been a fan of Toyota's legendary reliability, but gawd damn, I'm falling in love with the Raptor 😁
Haha me too
i have owned 3 of them over 23 years..... u want the ford.....trust me on that....
When I'm older and I can buy this, the price should be down a whole lot which is perfect because this already has enough upgrades since the original versions to last a lifetime
The Plate is covering the front intercooler!
I'm so sad that I cant get one they are to expensive sigh Ima go cry
Go get a better paying job
@@TrevorATX lol easy for you to say huh it would take me like 53yrs to get this
@@armageddon3244 $50-60k is expensive???
@@juankroosfrausto7411 yes lol. That is expensive for your average person.

Wow amazing truck perfect review good job sir interesting and informative topic
Good review my G!✊🏽✌🏽 Can’t wait to strap me a Raptor🤗
Me too, what a bad ass truck
On the c7 corvette it’s a sport car and it has 450hp and I always fantasized a truck with corvette like performance this raptor is awesome the ram also is pretty awesome with its 700hp. I want a spacious truck with insane sports car like driving I think it exists now...
For the money the change they should make the interior more luxury and completely different the F 150 .
I'm sure the interior of the next F150 is going to be amazing. :).
Getting mine this Friday. thanks for the review
Nice!!!!
I WANT ONE !
Thank you for the review.
It's just what I was looking for.
Dream car 🤤
That red stripe on the wheel actually has a purpose. When off road, you need to know where dead center is on occasion, without getting into too much detail.
Thanks for pointing that out
Always looking aggressive good truck
Very thorough demo. You touched every base and detail systematically during your ford raptor presentation. Good job sir, very informative.
Best revie EVER !!!
With so many cup holders they should make restroom inside it too incase someone have to pee...
🤔😆
If they put a bathroom in this truck ,you aren't going to be able to afford it.
Empty beer bottles act as pee bottle,recommend a 40 oz beer with screw cap.
@@kevincinnamontoast3669 why are you so right 🤣🤣👍
Use a cup
Hey CryptosRUS!
This truck is so cool !
A MAN HAVING THE TIME OF HIS LIFE IN HIS CAR

Excellent review!!!!
Hopefully in the coming years it will come with an v8 option
My dream car.. I can have it.... Soon!!!!
great job george..👌🏼
SUPER auto! To jest to co misie lubią najbardziej.
Shame they don't sell F150 Raptors in the uk
(As far as I can tell)
David Smith closest this is ford ranger raptor but it's not even close when compared with an American F150
Nice review george
Love my truck!!! Unreally fun!
Nice review. Love my 2020
Just got one... and my girlfriend loves it! I am the man
We had Audi. Bmw and other but the pickup is always te best car we had. You can put everything you want in it with no problems.

Still waiting to see there going to do a 7 liter V8.
They won't, maybe on the next gen, but I doubt it.
Calvin Ellis v6 puts out enough power. They put the 7 liter in the super duty though.
@@MrInzombia
Yeah but with V8 is will be STRONGER 💪
this is for sure the only truck for me but not my bank account
I know exactly what you mean David, I want one but the price is out of my range :(
Get an older model
hits you right in the good ol aichy breaky heart
Maybe I’m wrong but you sound a lot like Tiger Woods and I think that’s pretty cool
I like the look of this ford raptor, but only one thing I’m backing up that is gas mpg. It has a small engine but no good gas mileage. I think ford needs to focus on improving on mpg in this good looking track.
Nice truck, ram is coming with a 700hp engine in the trx please review when it comes cant wait to pre order.
Cant wait!
@@DriversOnly You and me both. You got the dream job testing all these beauties.
2021??
That’s cause it’s the only way dodge can sell their rams is to try to trick them up 700 hp’s? That is absolutely ridiculous
I just wish it had a V8 option of some sort
V8 Unnecessary, V6 much better, lighter, performance. Not missing the V8.
You just have to know your motor , know your transmission work with it
Just got the paperwork going on a baby blue one
That dirty carpet drove me nuts 😅
You nailed it!!!!
