Of course it's worth every penny. The raptor is the best truck there is right now. I'm waiting to see what the new hellcat ram is like in a few months.
My ‘19 just turned over 10k mi, now that has loosened up a bit and when combined with 93 octane, it is an impressive machine. I run a 305/45/22 summer tire and It’s been averaging 18 mpg mixed.

@@the-real-super-genius Only a mall crawler because city slickers buy them thinking they're cool. Although, it's their choice if they want a truck like a raptor. And wouldn't said mall crawlers just buy another truck and do the same thing anyway?
@@dodo19923 lol, I have a 2019 and take it offroad weekly. Sure it's my daily driver, but I like how I can drive it to work with a go-bag, then take off after work and hit the remote campsites
Mike, Clear out all those leaves in the windshield cowl, before they start clogging up the drain holes, and you get water inside the cabin. Love the videos by the way.
I really like your raptor. The only thing that I would hate about owning one is having 2 turbos, if they went out, they would be expensive and a pain to replace. Other than that, it’s pretty sweet
Roy Zepeda I installed the MPT 93 PRX tune on my Raptor a year ago and didn’t tell the wife! The first time she drove it she almost hit someone because of how touchy the throttle response is compared to stock! Almost 17,000 miles on my 2018 with the MPT tune since 1500 miles, no problems at all so far.
@@RSRS-ws3px Ive got the 2014 ford tremor and ive got the 91prx tune with some other stuff done and didnt tell my gf the gas mileage went down tremendously needless to say that day
Ryan B I jinxed myself! I wrote no issues and the past couple days it seemed to be running roughly! Then last night it would start and idle for 5 seconds then shut off!! It started after the fifth try and got me home. I called MPT and they said try changing the plugs first, which seemed weird with only 17,000 miles on it. I changed them today and the truck feels like a rocket again! I heard these ecoboost engines need to have the plugs changed way more often than the manual says but didn’t expect this! Something else to add to the yearly check list!
Ryan B so it’s a real thing? I wonder why? I had a 2014 stage 3 Roush Mustang that had an 82mm pulley and tuned by Performance Evolution in Smyrna, Delaware. I had 23K miles on it when I traded for the Raptor, it still had the same plugs and was running strong. Only about 10 pounds of boost though, does that make the difference?
With EcoBoost, you can have either eco or boost but not both! When EcoBoost engines are tested by the EPA on a dynamometer the turbo does not kink in giving an artificial boost to gas mileage.
You know you can drive the Ecoboost without actually making boost right? I have a 2013 EB with a Roush boost gauge and it's really easy to stay under 0 PSI of boost, even on the highway.
That 3 lights in the grill tells a warning that your car exceeds to size allowed according to car type. You could Modified it at Autobot it will be amazing after thats a great Shop.
What does his income have to do with the channel? His content is good regardless of his income and why do you care about his income? Mind your fucking business and enjoy the content..
How slow the truck is? Dude the raptor is faster than a lot of sports cars were 10 years ago, in the right conditions it goes 0-60 in 5.1 seconds, that’s EXTREMELY fast for a 6,000lb pickup truck, are you crazy? What do you think its going to be as fast as a ferrari? Cmon now, that’s the very fastest truck you can buy on the market, it puts you back in your seat like crazy! You clearly haven’t driven one.
@@jaredchampagne2752 I'm not saying the Ranger Raptor is slow (or has that particular braking performance). I'm just saying what I saw in CarWow's drag race (and a brake test, also) in which that truck competed with an Amarok, an F-150 Raptor, and an X-Class. Search on YT for "CarWow Raptor", if you want.
Ivo Poblete well this video is about an f150 raptor...sooo, the ranger raptor is slow, because its not made in America, but the f150 raptor is extremely fast
It all depends on the muffler. My truck stock had single outlet behind the passenger rear tire. I removed the entire exhaust system. Kit hat 2.5 pipes when truck had 3. But still it made a better difference because of the rest of the kit. Deleted resonator. Installed 3 chamber muffler to baffle the sound and dual tip outlet behind the rear bumper. It growls deep. Even for a V6. 2.7.
Sweet . Last year we bought a left over Southern comfort Ford F-150 its a XLT 6 inch lift , Wheels rims , leather heated seats , duel moon roof , auto start , gibbons exhaust , tuned 5.0 V8 Ride is unreal got it for 53k Price with extras 71k No regrets thanks
I've driven ecoboost trucks commercial and personal for 6 years. Compared to V8s yeah that 3.5 has power. I tow alot with it at work. Personal I own a 2019 f150 stx 2.7L. Yeah its not a V8 but I had to go through different combinations to get it to sound the way I wanted it. It does not sound bad. Plus I wouldn't worry owning a raptor. Its the only production truck that does everything. Just because its a bigger motor doesn't mean it's better. Bugatti veyron V12 been outrun by multiple cars with smaller motors. what v8 motor owners don't understand is that V6 motors have the torque which is what gets it up and goes. Plus can be tuned. Engine works harder and heavier with V8s.
The best Man Sedan money can buy! All the offroad capability but all it does is go from suburban homes to office parks and strip malls and back home. Super ready for any potholes!
@@jake51515 I would love to have the bullitt, but at the time the only dealer that had one within 500 miles had it in their showroom with a decent markup on it. In my opinion, the bullitt is the "ideal" mustang.
Gov would like to convince you that things only cost 2.4x what they did in 1982 HAHAHAHA. What a joke. In 1982 you could buy a decent pickup for $8k and rent a nice apt for $500/m. The average cost of a new car in 1980 was $7k. Welcome to the world of stagnant wages and constantly climbing pricing. But no one seems to notice, no one seems to care. A person is 1973 in the US had a HIGHER standard of living than 2018. After all the technological advances and toys to distract us from our crappy debt-ridden situation. As compared to the Russian and Chinese people who are doing 400% better in that comparison. But we are the best!! Enjoy your wage slave life. If you ever wonder why these other countries do not hate their gov like our media says they should, there is your answer.
Wish I could afford something like this, but I have to go with the 2021 colorado truck. It's not a bad truck I've test drived it and it felt great driving but it feels dated on the interior a little too plain, and needs more safety features, but it's a lot cheaper than the other trucks while still sporting some good useful features.
Any issues with the Raptor? People tell me about the cam phasers issues but I don’t know if it’s only certain years or all? Love the Lead Foot color too!
The leather hoods up VERY well in the year and half! -He sounded like 15 years in stead of 1.5yr. I would be mad if my $70K+ truck's leather beak down in 5 yrs.
I will admit, it does have the most badass looking front end of any pickup on the market. I sat in a 2020 at a dealership the other day, and was very impressed with the look and feel of the interior. However, that's as far as I got, since I wasn't there to purchase a $70K truck.
I really like the wau the Raport looks and I agree that the sound is not there but the performace is. Also i like the added lights that you did and im looking for a kit to put on my FX$ f150.
Have been following since you had you’re c63, and I didn’t even know you had a raptor. And since you’re Swedish you can probably read the next bit. Fede videoer man. Jeg er kæmpe fan 👍👍 fra Danmark
Love the truck Mike! I have a 18 platinum 3.5 and just to correct you on your comment lol the massage seats are only avail in platinum and king ranch and not lariat trim...
I have a 2000 Chevy S 10 ZR2, it has many options and Perfect Leather wrapped steering wheel and leather interior ,that I give a 95% rating in looks, Not to bad for 19 year old truck. I have only put $6,778.00 in maintenance cost for 19 years of ownership, try that with New trucks of today, 345,000 miles and Counting.....
I actually sell Fords, another thing to consider is that these raptors hold their value like CRAZY. Raptors hold their value probably better than any other full size truck on the market.
I'm planning on buying a 2020 Raptor. I like the white with the black stripes package and blacked out wheels, and the Magnetic Metallic are my two main color choices. I live in NYC, I see you live in the suburbs so you don't have the issue of looking for a spot to park your Raptor in the streets lol that's one of my concerns also, how good can this truck be for a city guy? How about the gas, how often do you guys have to go to the gas station to spend money on gas and how much do you drive it?? Those are the things I'm considering before buying one. They have the Auto On/Off now included to "SAVE" gas, how truthful is this? But I'm looking forward to have one soon. Any final suggestions my friend?
The Raptor is chill, but I'm wondering about the pothole issue. I saw one of WillMotivation's reviews of the raptor and he said that they don't do too well driving over potholes.
I’m glad to say it was worth waiting and not getting a ecoboost So glad I waited patiently and now time to buy a badass 2020 7.3 V8ZILLA Big Block f250 tremor 👏💪
jon maciel f250 and a ford raptor isn’t even in the same ball park, its comparing apples to oranges, an f250 is a giant sluggish work utility vehicle and the raptor is an extremely high performance exotic truck
Jared Champagne ok your point I think you just misinterpreted it I never compared the two I just literally stated my opinion on the eco boost and just said afterwards it was worth the wait to now finally get a 7.3 V8Zilla it’s pretty obvious what a 3.5 F-150 looks and sounds like also that of a Ford F-250 so don’t know what to tell ya ...
jon maciel well you made it seem like you were considering getting one of these trucks but you think an f250 is better, but they’re two different vehicles for two completely diff purposes
Like the stance of the vehicle, like the looks of the outside, really nice. Inside though the Ford plastic looks cheap, really cheap. Also you say the interior "holds up" WTF it's a 18 month old vehicle it better. Also the sound of those things, what was For thinking? If it's going to get 15 MPH then put a v8 with supercharger in it! Waiting to see Ram Hellcat coming out in a year from now. Lot nicer interior in that truck. Have you ever used that lane assist? it sucks. Oh, are you ever going to take it off road? If you do, you will be the first of any Raptor owners to do so.
Please continue making Trucks like this. It takes me a couple more years to get one new. Our 2006 F-150 is sold now here in Europe. Thanks Ford. :D Or Dodge or whoever. :)
Real world (calculated at pump using Fuelly App) average MPG on my 2018 with 8000 miles is 14.0 mpg. Best MPG was 19.1 from Durango Colorado to Amarillo TX 75 mph. Get about 13 in town. The Lie-ometer on dash is about 1.5 mpg over “true” mpg. I recalibrated my computer ( someone has a link on google on how to do it) and now my dash mpg readout is within 0.1 mpg of actual mpg. 35”KO2 tires and 4.10 gears don’t make for good fuel economy.
Nobody buys these for fuel economy, but I’ve averaged over 17mpg for the last 5000 miles in mixed driving to include lots of off roading, and over 19mpg on our last road trip. All depends on how you drive it.
Hi👋 New subscriber here:) I’m not that into cars but I use your success as inspiration for my own project:) Just wanna thank you for the content and the honesty about your journey. I’m so happy for you- that you made it and living your dream:)
Manual shifting with the paddles was designed for the high speed driving off road Baja desert style, not for road comparisons to other cars with manuel shifters. If a Raptor was actually driven on high speed desert roads the shifting speed through the gears would seem flawless and fast. No one really cares about the exhaust sound in the new Raptor, except UA-camrs, no offense. Coz everything else about it makes up for it. The TT engine is blisteringly fast for a bulky pickup truck. And all wrapped up in a beautiful body. Still loving my 18.
The paddle shifting is for playing, pretending you're doing something, letting the transmission work as it can and was made to do, will give better results. Do agree with you about the exhaust, the motors power and how it gives that power is impressive.
Only Mike drives a Ferrari and a Raptor and sports Walmart brand gym shorts. Stay humble Mikey.

Sitting here in the Ford dealership now buying a ‘19 XLT FX4 V8 and this pops up...twas meant to be!

Rob Nanneman mind sharing what was your price and what state you’re in.
I am getting it for $39,500 which includes extra 2 yrs bumper-to-bumper here in Indy.
Rob Nanneman sorry, I’m a Canadian. What state is INDY? Is that Indiana? Sorry if I sound stupid.
2016 F15 N55 Yeah
My favorite design feature of the Raptor compared to the regular F150 are the chamfered edges around the head/tail lights. Wide body looks so good!
I sometimes needed to drive down a gravel road with a few potholes to my son's soccer practice...so I bought a Raptor.
Get your bread up and stop being salty

I live in NYC, I see you live in the suburbs so you don't have the issue of looking for a spot to park your Raptor in the streets lol that's one of my concerns also, how good can this truck be for a city guy? How about the gas, how often do you guys have to go to the gas station to spend money on gas and how much do you drive it?? Those are the things I'm considering before buying one. They have the Auto On/Off now included to "SAVE" gas, how truthful is this? But I'm looking forward to have one soon. Any final suggestions my friend?
I average about 15mpg but I drive mine pretty hard all the time. A little hard to park because it's so wide. I always park in the back.
What...What? Hold Up!..... 4:20........EMBROIDMENT?
As in......"That Is Some DOPE Embroidment You got there Mike".
The Raptor is chill, but I'm wondering about the pothole issue. I saw one of WillMotivation's reviews of the raptor and he said that they don't do too well driving over potholes.
Oh my god that intro is fire I am super sorry to say this but thank you for the amazing ideas rt❤️❤️❤️
King of cinematic shot😀
Yeah I have the 502A package on my 2016 Lariat. I don't have the the adaptive cruise control though.
I’m glad to say it was worth waiting and not getting a ecoboost So glad I waited patiently and now time to buy a badass 2020 7.3 V8ZILLA Big Block f250 tremor 👏💪
jon maciel f250 and a ford raptor isn’t even in the same ball park, its comparing apples to oranges, an f250 is a giant sluggish work utility vehicle and the raptor is an extremely high performance exotic truck
Jared Champagne ok your point I think you just misinterpreted it I never compared the two I just literally stated my opinion on the eco boost and just said afterwards it was worth the wait to now finally get a 7.3 V8Zilla it’s pretty obvious what a 3.5 F-150 looks and sounds like also that of a Ford F-250 so don’t know what to tell ya ...
jon maciel well you made it seem like you were considering getting one of these trucks but you think an f250 is better, but they’re two different vehicles for two completely diff purposes
Jared Champagne and your right but just a miscommunication
Awesome vid can't wait to see the race
The excitement of your wife answers the question. Nothing else matters.
I will have to agree no truck out of the box compares to the Raptor
Like the stance of the vehicle, like the looks of the outside, really nice. Inside though the Ford plastic looks cheap, really cheap. Also you say the interior "holds up" WTF it's a 18 month old vehicle it better. Also the sound of those things, what was For thinking? If it's going to get 15 MPH then put a v8 with supercharger in it! Waiting to see Ram Hellcat coming out in a year from now. Lot nicer interior in that truck. Have you ever used that lane assist? it sucks. Oh, are you ever going to take it off road? If you do, you will be the first of any Raptor owners to do so.
Mike. Once the 6.7 v8 comes out you should install that in the raptor
Great idea, so he can gave a nose heavy and slower truck.👍 Oh btw I think you meant 7.3 .
And the tires fit under the truck.. and looks great
Awesome video Mike!
Truck goals right here!
my next truck 👍
thanks for the video
Exhaust on right there shuttle sound better than you think it will
It’s that trap muzic Snow White edition whistle while you work it
have you thought about getting a leathering detailing kit
Brad Haughton briefly
Where did you purchase the fog lights and how much were they. They look very good. Thanks! Oh and by the way, BEAUTIFUL TRUCK!!!
nice review bro.. all the best from MRZVlogs
Please continue making Trucks like this. It takes me a couple more years to get one new. Our 2006 F-150 is sold now here in Europe. Thanks Ford. :D
Or Dodge or whoever. :)
Real world (calculated at pump using Fuelly App) average MPG on my 2018 with 8000 miles is 14.0 mpg. Best MPG was 19.1 from Durango Colorado to Amarillo TX 75 mph. Get about 13 in town. The Lie-ometer on dash is about 1.5 mpg over “true” mpg. I recalibrated my computer ( someone has a link on google on how to do it) and now my dash mpg readout is within 0.1 mpg of actual mpg. 35”KO2 tires and 4.10 gears don’t make for good fuel economy.
Nobody buys these for fuel economy, but I’ve averaged over 17mpg for the last 5000 miles in mixed driving to include lots of off roading, and over 19mpg on our last road trip. All depends on how you drive it.
Rshane P lmao!!! My wife averages 12-14 on her 2019 raptor. I get worse when I drive it. Even on LONG road trips, we get 16 mpg.
Hi👋 New subscriber here:) I’m not that into cars but I use your success as inspiration for my own project:) Just wanna thank you for the content and the honesty about your journey. I’m so happy for you- that you made it and living your dream:)
But a gen 2 should have a 5.0 ..... see a paxpower conversion from platinum to Raptor.... awesome
After the intro i insta gave it THUMBS up ! Epic music,epic intro you really impress me man !
Manual shifting with the paddles was designed for the high speed driving off road Baja desert style, not for road comparisons to other cars with manuel shifters. If a Raptor was actually driven on high speed desert roads the shifting speed through the gears would seem flawless and fast.
No one really cares about the exhaust sound in the new Raptor, except UA-camrs, no offense. Coz everything else about it makes up for it. The TT engine is blisteringly fast for a bulky pickup truck. And all wrapped up in a beautiful body. Still loving my 18.
The paddle shifting is for playing, pretending you're doing something, letting the transmission work as it can and was made to do, will give better results. Do agree with you about the exhaust, the motors power and how it gives that power is impressive.
