I normally wouldn't want blue, but this dark blue is beautiful, especially contrasted with the black highlights and orange decals. Very nice! Wish I could option it with the Powerboost though!
I've learned from other sources that the Raptor does not come with the Torsion Front Differential. The second half of my question above still stands though--or something that does the same thing. Do you or does anyone seeing this know? Thanks.
No. 21 was the last year. There were issues with them exploding. These really are designed to be west coast desert rippers, not rock crawlers, so that also played into the decision to lose the Torsen. Other than traction control theres nothing in the front. Just electric locker in the back. I have a 23.
@@highwayman1218 Thanks. Do you like your 23? I could use the raptor in all environments, but I'm not a crazy desert racer or crazy rock climber. Off road it's more destination stuff, a campsite, a trail head, a friends cabin. But i can find myself on different quality dirt roads often, and in ski country as I am, will want it to handle the worst snow storms, local roads or highways, those are the best ski days after all.
@@Nate-zy5ce Yeah, I do enjoy it. Super capable and luxurious for an off road truck. It is a great do it all truck and will easily handle all of it. It is wide though. As a Jeep guy too, depending on your trail sizes the Gladiator may be a better fit for those uses. The Rubicon Gladiator gets you a front e locker which may be a necessity on the trail in snow. Personally I think the Jeep is a better snow vehicle as the Raptor is a heavy truck and you know heavy in the snow is a disadvantage climbing and descending.
@@highwayman1218 I appreciate all the input. For me, it's gotta be a luxury interior, go anywhere, anytime, any kind of weather, do it all daily driver.
@@EverydayReviews2022 That's good info. Thanks. One of the things I want is to use this as my daily driver, but also with that flat worksurface of the front center console to use this to take my home office mobile w/ a laptop, cell phone and either a wifi hotspot or Starlink to truly be able to work from anywhere, even while camping by a distant lake. I could run my laptop battery as long as possible, and then hopefully while using the laptop with the engine running only as long as needed to fully recharge the laptop, then resume using the laptop battery again, and so on.

Totally agree on the Powerboost option. It would be the best combo.
I think that same orange decal package would look sharp on an all agate black Raptor too. Love the 37's especially.
this dude has literally my dream truck everything that is on this raptor i want except id have to go with a black for the color
The middle class can only dream of this truck, so saddening
If there's a will, there's a way.
Does this Truck have to be levelled?
Does this have the "Torsion front Differential" that comes on the Tremor, or something that does the same thing?

What sorts of things can you do with the 2k watts of power that comes with the Raptor's Pro Power Onboard? And for how long? Thanks.
@@Nate-zy5ce power anything under 2000w. First, freezer, microwave, lights, tv etc. you need to run the truck so you can use as long as you have gas.

You didn’t mention that if you get the raptor R you cannot get the 37 package
The R has 37’s and same suspension
I don't understand car reviews where I'm looking towards the driver and not windshield, which is what we want to see.
