That tune and blue cruise is what ford needs to keep up with the RHO. The 10 speed vs 8 should make up for the 14 HP difference, of course lower the price a bit as well
Hey Ben! Thanks for the video. How about trying a review of the Shelby F-250 Super Baja that actually has a 6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel. I think they may have been trying to give us soimething with better fuel economy with the V-6, but failed to realize (DUH), that consumers actually want the power of a V-8.
@@watkinsjason I don’t care how much “power” it has. A truck that looks like a Raptor cannot have and sound like a V6. The looks don’t match the sound and that’s all I really care about. The experience of the truck.
@@deadswarmaking1135 I was just playing about the manliness. But in all seriousness, I can’t have a sweet looking aggressive truck that has and sounds like a V6. I just can’t get past that. It’s cool, but then you hear it…plus mentally knowing it’s just a V6. I’d rather have a V8 normal GM, Ford, or Ram over a V6 Raptor and build it. Needless to say, I bought a Raptor R after owning a Gen2 for about 4 years. I just couldn’t get past the V6, no matter how good it looked.
Spacer lifts totally destroy a Raptor. They just lower the front differential which puts a giant lever arm on the frame. You don't want to drive that like a normal Raptor offroad.
Cut the price in half and they would sell a bunch. Supercharge a V8 and they would sell more. I reluctantly bought a Tremor last year because Toyota dropped the V8 and recovery hooks.
Not to mention the service from Ford sucks. I bought my bronco in 2022 new and had a tie rod bolt loose from factory. It took 6 Ford service departments to find what was wrong...6 different service places. Ridiculous.
Yeah, have you actually looked at the economic indicators / actual facts …. Or just keep repeating stupidity you read on face book and hear on Fox News?
I bet it has nothing to do with their affordable pricing 🤣🤣.
Problems
1. Lol V6
2. Very heavy
3. Very slow
4. Unstable at speed
5. No payload
6. More expensive than a raptor r
7. Terrible resale
Correct in every way. Raptor R would be a better way to go.
They were smoking something very strong when they thought they could sell these for 144k at scale.
Shelby should be a 90k truck not 144 when the raptor R is now available if 37 and duel valve then maybe 95k.
At a $120k discounted I would not expect "electrical fault" codes.
Wait a minute…..a maverick has damn near 3 times the payload?
And with a 525 pound payload, you can’t even carry 4 adults?
What in the actual hell?

525lbs of payload…who the F was like “yeah that will be fine”
Right? That’s like one American!
@@UA-camuser1aa I know right…all jokes aside you would be overloaded with 4 adults. A Prius has more payload capacity…
I
525lbs of payload? Is anyone really going to use this truck for what it's designed to do while it costs $130k? This is stupid.

Why would anyone wave that giant Shelby logo on the grill?! Looks ridiculous.
I agree. Should be much more subtle
What issue was it displaying?
Give me that white Gen1 in the background. The Shelby V6 thing is not for a real man 💪🏻
525 hp / 675 torque is not manly enough for you?
Not when it sounds like a wet fart@@watkinsjason
@@roynelson3207Alright I'll bite as well......Is sound the only/most important metric when it comes to measuring "manliness"?

Does Shelby disable the awful stop/start?
Price aside, it’d be awesome to have one
it’s cool but the payload

i would love a cheaper raptor with a 5.0 . that combo would prob be the best raptor to ever do it
I had a raptor, now I am in a new Roush with supercharged 5.0. 1000x a better truck. 705HP. Active exhaust. its the truck to buy.
Cut the price in half and they would sell a bunch. Supercharge a V8 and they would sell more. I reluctantly bought a Tremor last year because Toyota dropped the V8 and recovery hooks.
Astronomical MSRP
Raptor is my favorite truck
2023 Ford Shelby F-150 Baja Raptor 75th Anniversary Edition SuperCrew Cab 4X4!

Is the Karl Malone from the Utah Jazz?
Ford in general is having a rough year, hopefully they can turn things around without a gov’t bailout!
$144k V6.
Zit still surviving
💪
So its a raptor but worse with some over priced stickers?
Pay over 100k for the privilege all that electronic garbage barking at me? Yea pass
I just saw one with over 30k off msrp!!
Needs 30 more
WHAT IS THE WARNING MESSAGE??????
Trailer brake system fault
What does everyone think of USED vehicles? Would you buy one?
The seats looks like a 5 yr old designed them 😂
Problem: SHELBY!
I don’t like the grill or the engine or definitely the price.
Shelby is overrated & overpriced just get a raptor
R
People complaining about payload of an off road desert racing truck omfg lol
I mean a raptor is 1200.
500? That’s like two people and their bag
Still a major rip off, especially with a V6
525 lbs of payload? 😮 🤔
The same as a Corolla 😂
😮😂
You lost me at V6! Shelby must be rolling over in his grave!
The Shelby business model seems irrelevant
$.
I REALLY dislike the rear exit exhaust systems on 4x4's...your exhaust would get completely pinched shut should your ass drag wheeling.....
I don’t like the Shelby i do not think it looks as good as a regular raptor
Its not a Shelby, without a supercharged V8! This particular spec, is a waste!
It needs a Mortgage... Nope..
Way way to much money
Just Buy a Used TRX and live out your dreams
7:05 what’s he talking about I’m told by the Dems all the time that bidenomic is working great🤣🤣🤣. People don’t vote for the toe
Yeah, have you actually looked at the economic indicators / actual facts ….
Or just keep repeating stupidity you read on face book and hear on Fox News?
Useless bed and an ugly interior.
Wonder why…demonrat pricing, or another way for those not sure what that means…bidenomics 😂
Vote accordingly! And gouging to boot
Yeah…..
Just tell us you don’t live in actual reality
Way over priced and it’s just some bullshit bolt ons.
