2024 Ford F-150 Raptor R as a Daily driver Can it work for real life? Horrible fuel mileage MPGs!

- For 2024 Ford refreshed the F-150 Raptor across the 35 package, 37 Performance package and the Raptor R with the 5.2l Supercharged V8.
For this video I am doing a ride review to show how the 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor R is a family hauler and a Daily Driver!

I speak for everyone who showed this video to their wives, thank you for helping us convince her :)
Haha! 😆
Great content dude
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching!
great video... i love it
Thank you for watching and the comment!
great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I bet I could get those mpgs down to 5, hold my beer. Lol that's respectable mileage for a truck with that capability. Looks like a winner so far.
Right on! My thoughts too!
I drive a 2012 Silverado 1500 with a code that is running rich and maybe that's a sign to condition myself if I ever get me a Raptor R in the future lol. Nice truck BTW!!
Thank you for the comment!
Hello from France ! Thank you for your videos, honestly this sorts of cars are light years away from EU cars. Here the best thing you can buy new is a 1.5L Diesel or 3 cylinders petrol engine, of course I do not talk about EV. So people like me who like small sports cars or pickup we love to dream looking to the west ahah. This Ford Raptor R is amazing and so versatile. I only do not understand your explanantions regarding the oil temp, is it a problem, does it overheat during normal driving ? Anyway I love this truck. Take care and enjoy your car ;) !
Hey Thanks for watching from France! No issue with oil temps, just watching the supercharger air intake temps go up in traffic, but no problems at all...more of just an FYI for the viewers!
Hello thanks for video hey is tonnoue cover from ford? Or after market
Aftermarket. I left a link in description to my mods video for the Raptor if your interested in it.
This is a great video. I’m considering a Raptor as a daily driver too and appreciated all your points. You cleared up a lot of things that I was thinking about. I have two things I’m still considering. One is a point you made which is gas mileage between the standard Raptor (with 37) and the R. To be honest, I’m a little scared of the low gas mileage on the R. Below 10 MPG is really expensive. And the second point that causes me hesitation is that Blue Cruise is not available in Raptors. I’m not sure why. The first year of the 3rd gen I believe Ford was planning on having Blue Cruise available as an option in Raptors, but then they changed their mind. I was hoping that by now they would have been able to configure Blue Cruise to work with Raptors. Have you heard anything about that?
If 10mpg bothers you stay far away from the R. 36 gallon tank will psychologically mind f-you when you fill up. LOL. I look at it like it's not too bad considering I've owned the 1st gen and that thing was atrocious at 12mpg. But it made less HP than the R. So somehow I justify the mpg on the R. Now if I can find one for sticker price I'll jump on it like yesterday.
j.johnson5859 I'm in Texas so gas is bit cheaper. Probably more like $135 for 36 gallons of 93 oct for the Raptor R. But yeah, 325 miles on a full tank. lol.
Thanks for the review! I've got a deleted 22' limited on 40's and a lifted/blown G1 coming up on 98K hard driven miles. The amount of fun I've had in those years of ownership is priceless. I can only imagine how much more they've built upon that formula.
G3.5 is a beautiful truck, so so about the splashes, but nonetheless. I look forward to more videos about it.
Cheers
Right on! More good stuff to come!
Frame of reference for those curious how this compares to other Ford trucks…I’m getting 12.1AVG so far over 1,500 miles in my 24’ F350 Platinum Tremor 7.3. Running factory tires at 65psi front/75 rear. Burning 87 octane.
So this 720HP monster gets the about the same as my truck 😅
Boom! Thank you for the comment! That is almost identical to what I saw on the other 23 and 24 7.3l Super duties I did on reviews also.
I can see it has some rake but are you able to measure from the ground to the top of the wheel wells, I’ve seen where some have a .5” up to 1.5” difference. Thanks
Yes I can
I’ve got almost 14k miles on my 23 Raptor R and my average is 14.2 since day one of owner ship. Not bad at all I don’t think considering my 37 performance package ecoboost was only around 16mpg.
not bad at all!
1:35 - It looks like you have some amber inboard fog lights? Is that just a lens swap or an entirely new pair of lights? And are those tied to the Aux switches?
Edit: I see you have a video showcasing them, nevermind. lol
Thanks for watching!!
I have a pro built moded Scat with 763 at the wheels I get 4.6 in town 7.7 on Highway lol
thats awesome!
My 2007 Ford Expedition 13mpg on good day and 8mpg when press the gas down! Don’t want to know how much gas and maintenance spend since 2007. Looking forward buying Raptor.
Thanks for watching!
Can you put your exhaust to Baja mode without putting your Drive mode to Baja? Your screen just popped up and said Baja Mode only... Your thoughts?
Yes you can!
This vehicle is made for off road use. I’m not paying $120k for exclusive daycare and Starbucks runs. A 35 package is more sensible. And $40k cheaper. Gas mileage is terrible normally. Pity the guy who owns a RV or boat.
Thanks for watching!
Do you have any video from towing the 8000lb 34ft trailer with a Raptor?
Not of the new 24 Raptor R but I have some pictures of doing this in several other videos showing my 14,17,19, and 21 Raptor towing an 8000lb Travel Trailer. I will have a 24 Raptor R towing video soon! Stay tuned!
Do you think rear facing car seat would fit in 2020 Raptor Supercab?
great question, I think it might be possible, with pushing the seat all the way up.
Yes, I just bought a one and there is enough room.
@@davidpritchard5108 I have two small kids and a 90lb dog.... too small you think? Congrats on your supercab.
Did you buy it with Msrp price?
I had to pay market pricing like everyone else!
So comparing a 120k vehicle plus mark ups vs a 60k truck for the average consumer ?
Thanks for watching!
Don't you think it should have a economy mode so it can drive like a regular Raptor and get maybe 15 to 20 miles a gallon. When you want the 700+ horsepower maybe you drop it down to Drive super/DS on the gear lever. 05-03-24
I think thats a great idea! I agree
It needs to run 91 octane, correct?
Yes sir!
Boil it all down, a truck is a truck. The difference is the price.
You got it! Thanks for watching!
What color ?
Avalanche Grey! Thanks for watching
Buy stock in BP and Shell my man.....how long are you planning on keeping this?.....seems like you trade every couple years or less....🤷♂️
haha for sure! I am not sure yet, I kept the last one 2 years. I could see that or longer if this is the last V8 Raptor. Thanks for watching!
I can't imagine how much will you spend in 100k
More than the truck cost. 🚚
Well if you can afford it, go ahead, but I can't.
Gasoline is too much expensive. 6$ for now, summer 7$
Gas isn’t cheap!
Why buy a raptor for family truck? Its meant to get down and dirty off roads
Why not do all that with a family!
I DD a Gen 2, Goosed Tuned @93 octane, trany tuned and will never not own a Raptor!
I have heard the Goosed Tuned ones run great! they are such awesome trucks! Thanks for watching!
money can’t buy happiness bullshit maybe before the raptor came out
haha! Thanks for watching!
🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪💪💪💪🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
Thanks for watching!
I can’t imagine parking this thing at crowded places
For sure, mine will never be parked at a place like that!
