I purchased a 2010 Raptor with all of the bells and whistles for the first year Raptors. Its a late year model and has the 6.2L and I absolutely love it. It's in Molten Orange and all original, it was owned by a 68yo female and had 83k miles when I purchased it. Absolutely no regrets about it.
Good purchase, we highly recommend them! And highly dread the day we ever part with ours.
A vehicle for me was always more than going point A to B. I have absolutely no reason to leave the house on a daily basis but I do to drive the truck. For me it’s such a visceral experience. I added a pedal commander and it upped the fun factor even more. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching! We hear good things about the pedal commander.
"It is designed to kill the planet as quickas possible, whether its a tree, a small child, an animal ... it takes it out and destroys it ... " .. Dudes .. killin' me here!! That's awesome!😂😂😂
Haha! We forgot about that. Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more nonsense.
Midlife crisis owner checking in. When at 40+ you ask yourself how much fun do you / did you have in your life, and realise you want to up it a bit, this truck does it. Love to drive it, look at it in the parking lot when getting in and out, and yes, I have a matching mini-raptor on my dash as well. I love driving to and from work. And yes, gas mileage is horrible. Mainly because I take the longer (often dirt) roads.
We love everything about that. This is how people should shop vehicles. Enjoyment is way more important than MPG.
Absolutely luv this comment .. PURE FACTS🎉
I have the exact same year and color. Love it. My brother has a procharged 2011 with longtubes and full exhaust that is an animal.
Been binging 1st Gen Raptor reviews and am picking one up tomorrow. This is by far the most entertaining one!
We appreciate that, this was our first ever review. Congrats on your Gen 1!
Lets discuss handling... thats was so appropriate! My truck looks just like your, and I love it. Driving it is the best part of my day.
Does handling matter when straight over is an option? Sounds like you have a sweet rig! Thanks for watching.
Thats what i need!! Not a V6 exhoboost!!
ECOBOOST means," When your injectors quit just short of 100,000 kms, and the truck goes over 104,000 kms by the time the dealer gets it, you're out of warranty! And because we build such a POS engine, the engine has to be pulled, destroying the lower control arms, all of the fasteners on the top of the motor have corroded so they have to be drilled and the injectors have seized so bad that a machine shop had to DRILL THE INJECTORS OUT!!! Does the dealer do all 6 injectors at this time? Nooooo, why would they do that? Cost to replace 3 injectors? North of $7000!! Ford refused to honour warranty. Ford has been traded in, last Ford I'll ever buy. Now driving a fire engine red Kia Soul and loving it!
@@klr650ryderyou traded shit for something worse
The running boards are to help you not slide into the seat and wear out the side bolster.
You guys have the best of both worlds in this video.
- Being informative while more than entertaining enough to continue watching.
Great review, great content. 10/10
Wow thanks! And thanks for watching, we have a lot of content in the edit queue so stay tuned for more.
Dreamcast entertainment system & Ball chiller seats FTW! 😂🤣🤣 Thanks for the video gentlemen. Was a nice review. Hope to add a Gen 1 Raptor to my fleet someday. 🍻
Thanks! It brings us joy when someone understands our dumb humor. Thanks for watching our first episode ever.
Great job guys!
Thanks Shane. Stay tuned for more!
With great power comes great responsibility. I get compliments from people all the time. Mine is a 2010 6.2 Metalic Black and doesn't have the Raptor graphics.
We would have skipped the graphics had we ordered this new.
@@TexasTruckChannel oh me too, I happen to like the clean lines myself. You are actually the only other person that has voiced that besides myself that I've heard. It is such an awesome truck just as it stands. Great for formal "nights on the town" or a day in the back forty.
Mine is all stock, but the 6.2 makes it sound so good. I have a sticker on the back window of mine to inform people that I don't drive it like a sports car. It reads "Not Fast, Just Loud" it has already proven itself in the Baha 1000, I don't feel the need to skunk anyone at the traffic light. I guess since then these only came in the four colors that mine must also be a Tuxedo Black as well, but it has a chrome coating over the paint, which gives it that metalic look. It has rainbows in the paint when you look at it in the direct sunlight. Your interior is black just like mine. I was so happy that it matched the rest of the truck. Red is ok if you like that, or have a red truck. Not my style though. Thanks for sharing your video and Raptor though. I've been a Raptor addict since 2010. I am partial to all, Gen 1 and Gen 2, but the years 10 through 14 are my favorites. They have that beefy feel that the Gen 2 just doesn't have.
I have over 42 smaller versions of Raptors, both Gen's. I love love love my truck.
Just love my 2013 black scab gen 1 Raptor !!!!!!
I bought my fully loaded Silver 2014 Raptor in 2015 with 8,000 miles on it. I now have 135,000 miles on it and haven’t had one single problem with it, not one! I love this truck and will be keeping it a while longer. Where in Texas are you guys? I live in the Dallas, TX “Area”.
Glad to hear it! We bought ours at 123k miles, and now it’s about to hit 150k. We rebuilt the shocks, and chewed through some brakes. Other than wear items it’s been solid as well. We are located in Fort Worth 👍🏼
you must not have a sunroof. :) Mine failed less than 2 weeks ownership, and no warranty.
Yes I agree ball chillers for all Texas edition trucks 😂😂
The 1st gen Raptor is the most environmentally friendly vehicle you can buy.
I bought a 2014 SVT Raptor love it getting the emblems for the rear and im going to get the SVT light up emblem as well.
I have 2 purple hearts and a Roush Raptor. I have to be careful if it rained yesterday.
I subbed first video I seen 😎 good review I loved that brake test 😂
Hey thanks for subbing. If you are into Raptors then stay tuned. We shot an off-road piece about a month ago that we are still editing. We try to sneak in a brake check in every car if we can 👍🏼
@@TexasTruckChannel I'm a fellow raptor owner here in DFW as well 😉 I got the 14 special edition will y'all be going to the raptor Run this next weekend
@@MAGNUMCASTLE Fantastic! Have a blast, and let us know how it goes. We have to yet to even make it out to TexPlex, much less a raptor run.
I live like 2 minutes from the road you drifted at 1:33 lmao that’s crazy
Prius; Luke Skywalker
Raptor; Darth Vader
Very cool guys! Loving the channel.
Great Video , I still get plenty of thumbs 👍 on my 2013 raptor roushed in flamed blue 💙. Tons of fun ands tons of gas ⛽ with the supercharger , wouldn't trade it for a gen 2 , gen 2 are beautiful trucks but the gens ones have been proven
Sounds like a nice gen 1! We love both generations of the raptor, but the sound of the 6.2 in the gen 1 cannot be replaced by a v6.
How long you have the supercharger? And how is it running so far? Who makes superchargers for 6.2L Raptor?
I purchased my 2013 back in 2013 from levittown ford in long island NY... and use it all the time in the city. It's not that bad and lots of Raptors running around here now
That is awesome!
Any rust on the lower part in NY?
You guys are hilarious! Thank you for the knowledge and the laughs..lolllolll
BALL CHILLERS!!! 🤠🤘
My 2012 gets 13.5 city, my 2014 tundra maybe 14.5. Highway is where the gap widens to 15 vs 18. Overall the gas mileage isn't that bad unless youre flooring it.
Agreed, and worth every drop of fuel. Thanks for watching.
I've recorded 24,000 miles on my 2014, and my average MPG is 13.2. That's living in 2 states and I would say 60% highway.
That is 1.2 mpg better than us! Congrats on the rig and thanks for checking out our show.
Vents on the side look fake but are also functional you’ll see the steam coming out in winter or on a cool day it rains
I have to get one of these.
We highly recommended that you do.
I am about to trade in my single cab Chevy and my mustang gt for one. Hope it’s all worth it.
As the former owner of a single cab Chevy, and current owner of a Mustang GT... I can assure you it is!
I am at the end of this month Aug.1st going to be able to get a 2010-13. ? RAPTOR!!!! WWWWEEEEEEEEE
Congrats!!!! You are going to love it.

Sounds like a sweet rig. The 6.2 is a champ of an engine. We love ours.
@@TexasTruckChannel I recommend all the performance upgrades that I did to my 6.2 we Dyno out 485 HP 510 Torque
4 years late to the comments but if i had a gen 1 (currently have a gen 2) then mine would be cammed with an agressive side dump. THAT wouod be obnoxious, lol. I had a 2012 F150 Leriat FX4 which shared the same interrior as the Raptor and growing up around trucks, ive never had one (before that particular F150) that was as luxurious. It had all the bells and whistles with the 3.5TT. I was around 156k miles before i sold it and the damn thing had no issues. On these gen 1 Raptors, i see peiple pushing 500k miles and they claim theirs is still runninh strong as well.
Totally would be, and would be equally AWESOME
There’s a 2012 SVT by me with the 6.2 black on black with 76k miles. It’s 39k and my presa Canario is too big for my 5 series BMW. Should I pull the trigger 😮💨
Simple answer, YES!
Just bought a 2012 Raptor two days ago I love it! But I got it with 150k miles on it 😮
Engine still breaking in. You’re good 👍🏽
150k is nothing for it
I'm about to purchase a 2010 ford raptor svt with 60k in mint condition should I buy 🤔 i wish I could post pics
Yes!!!
Just purchased it im so happy thanks everyone
Your buddy is hating bad on your raptor either u get it or u don’t lol the raptor ain’t for all
Guys I was thinking 14’-17’ Silverado or
2012 Ford Raptor svt with 80k miles for $21k.
However, it’s salvage title and the MPG is what’s holding me back from driving up 4 hours to Yuma for it’ what would you guys recommend?
Salvage title is the tricky part. I would consider a higher mile clean title example. Our Gen 1 was rock solid when we sold it at 175k miles.
Hopefully u picked the salvage raptor.
The guy with glasses is jelly
Is it worth buying one for 26k but 87k miles?
Yes it is. Assuming it is a clean example. It should be going for 30k or more with this miles.
just saying i work at ford and SVT is very much so still a thing its just not badged public as SVT anymore. I also think its lame that they arent because the SVT badge to a consumer is like half the reason the car is even that much more special.
dang, gotta mount that car seat better haha
Details!
How much to fill your gas up? Would you say
Usually $60-70. Our fuel rates are pretty reasonable here in Texas.
Hey guys FYI “Raptor” is not a bird! How did you come up with that ?
We blame google...

The guy in the glasses is an pretentious tool.
raptor is a bird...how did you come up with it? Are you from Toronto?
Would a 2012 SVT Raptor with 112k miles for 33k be a good deal?
In our area, in early 2023, yes.
@@TexasTruckChannel ok thank you sir!
Yes the hold their value so well
Absolutely
I get 15 to 16 with mine
That’s solid
@@TexasTruckChannel I think because I have a Roush exhaust and cold air intake and a pedal commander
@@TexasTruckChannel Driving around a solid 13
great video but a clear copy of the straight pipes. try to distance urself from them
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll take any connection to the Straight Pipes as a complement. All joking aside, take a look at our newer episodes, this was our very first piece. It takes a little time to find our format and flow. Thanks for watching.
Craig needs to get his testosterone checked.
Thanks for the feedback, plane furor. Having seen Craig’s testosterone first hand, we can assure you the Raptor would not stand a chance.
Brake Check impossible. Lol
What is the top speed for this truck ? I mean , REAL top speed reached by the owners not the Ford numbers....
98 allegedly
@@TexasTruckChannel Thank you man
Not really a review, just some guys talking about an interior
Thanks for living up to your username, also thanks for watching!
