I really want to see these two in an off-road race. I'm 100% certain that the raptor would clean up in a true high speed off-road race, and I think it would still win in a slower rock crawling race
Spent a few hours at the Freedom Factory today. Bought tickets for the MRE and it was awesome. The FF crew was amazing.

This was very low force on the balls like they were pulling. The videos where you see them snap off and go sailing through the air are when they are pulling stuck trucks out by running like hell with a loose strap until it yanks like hell.
Would be interested in seeing slicks on both trucks maybe cut down on the wheel hop. Might be just enough to come out ahead. Great racing, great content, and great trucks. It's a TRX for me though. Thank you all for the fun entertainment.

The TRX would have done better off the line because of the wait look at no prep guys they start weighing their cars down after they lighten their cars up to get traction
Ford has empress me with how they took a truck with off road set up. Made it a beast like the old Lightings. Crazy. I have heard there is a way to take off the limiter of 109 make it unlimited. E85 also. How about the Shelby F150 and the TRX now.

@@joshuaearnheart2756 Alright bud light. The raptor was a neutered bitch until the TRX forced Ford to make a real truck. You're welcome MOPAR pushes true greatness.
@@EdwardVarner so great that they discontinued everything with a v8 right? They took mopar or no car to heart. Now you get no car. They had a 6.2 that was bulletproof in the gen 1 that a lot of people were supercharging anyways. Also, don’t forget they build them for a purpose. Ford actually runs all of the raptors and all of the broncos in Baja. The trx falls apart once it leaves the highway. The gen 2 was the most powerful truck on the road. The whole idea behind the daily driver Baja truck was ford. You can’t say mopar is pushing something that was never their idea. Ford had 2 generations before they ever came out with anything.
@cleetus McFarland you should look into hooking up with hotwheels or matchbox and turning your cars into toys. I have four boys and they love your videos. I know roadkill did it.
Exactly! A 350 diesel with a 6' lift gets around 5-7+ MPG more than both of those super trucks. Most people also don't realize how extremely light you have to be on the gas pedal to hope you can get up to 12mpg. And if you have a heavy foot then you'll average about 8 MPG.

Watching the Raptor strut its stuff makes me feel good!!
The Raptor is limited to 109. There's a video of a guy who was able to change it and his ETs were .2 quicker and 8 mph faster.
I Hit It "Laugh'n" When I Heard:"I wasn't Ready?"
Y'all Are Too Much! Make'n My Day! Thank Y'All, J
Cleetus you should be worried about that hitch ball coming through the back of your truck. Not backing into each other😂
Very true way beyond typical load on standard hitches
Which ball? There were three cannon balls on that hitch I saw😂😂
Nah, it's one in a billion chance of that happening.
@@RSBully.zits more likely than you would think..
I remember seeing a few liveleak videos where similar things had occurred
This was very low force on the balls like they were pulling. The videos where you see them snap off and go sailing through the air are when they are pulling stuck trucks out by running like hell with a loose strap until it yanks like hell.
This test convinced me that I might need to buy both.😂
Bank account: "You don't need that, trust me"
Would be interested in seeing slicks on both trucks maybe cut down on the wheel hop. Might be just enough to come out ahead. Great racing, great content, and great trucks. It's a TRX for me though. Thank you all for the fun entertainment.
The Raptor would still win that, considering the Raptor runs on bigger tires overall.
I feel like everyday at cleeters shop is just a private burnout comp 😂
I was a ram guy for the longest time, but really been digging the f150 in the last couple years. Both trucks are great, but f150 with v8 is my next truck this year
Watch out for the 10 speed and phase sensors.
I agree I am shopping for a f150 with the coyote and a 10 speed. Then maybe a supercharger
@@b-radfrommalibumake sure to budget in a new motor cus Ford lol
@@BudMasta😂You’re wild the 5.0 is superior to the 6.4 and 6.2 from its competitors. It has forged internals and can handle more power than the other engines stock as well. My F150 5.0 is a beast 95K miles pulling strong
Came back here to see how TRX looked again before it became 2 door :D
The Raptor R also has 37's from the factory versus the 35's on the Trx if i remember correctly right? That would play a role as well.
good call
Raptor tuned and geared for 4.10s also though .
Disadvantage to have taller tires. More wheel torque with smaller tires.
@@dougleitz1134 disadvantage to be 700lbs heavier , have 3.55 gears vs R’s 4.10 and a 8speed not a 10 speed .
@@03terminatorsnakehonestly diff gear ratio doesn’t make as much of a difference as it used to with these 8-10 speed transmissions bc the gear ratios for every gear are very short
I’d be happy with Cleetus’ annual tire budget!!
He's sponsored by Nitto, so he doesn't have to care, haha!
Cleet don’t hook those tow straps to the hitch ball. Plenty of videos of them snapping and sending the metal flying towards you in the truck! Hate to see something happen 6:34
I can’t believe he hasn’t put a pulley on the raptor. Either way, this man is a grown child and I feel lucky to be able to watch the shenanigans. Reminds me of me and my friends but with more money! Lol
TRX for the win! It's probably one of my favorite videos from you guys!
Hands down best video ever love the raptor to death that drift with raptor and yota was pretty sick
Timing don’t get more perfect than that!! Love you guys
Yall should definitely build off challenge and see who can build the better truck it would be cool to see a twin charge on the channel
Yes, we need more raptor r content 🔥
This video is literally what we all needed to see haha. Love it! I've driven both and for sure prefer the TRX over the Raptor R.
Why do you prefer it? Raptor seems like a more fun truck
Bet you voted for Biden too lol 😂
@@wizza2315 originality for sure makes you win with your comment. If someone prefers a different truck than you, then all of a sudden they vote left lol. Come on buddy. You're making all of us conservatives look bad when you say stupid things like that.
@JedemPoKucama I think he prefers a slower, heavier truck.
@@larrycarlston4044 just prefer a better driving truck. You can make either quicker.
If James shifted manually I think it would be closer but the extra weight in the Dodge really shows.
@@Dazaking719 How so?
Love James but he aint gonna hit them shifts better than that trucks computer does.
@@warrenmichael918 I've owned an 8 speed mustang and a 10 speed f150. If yo can hold 2nd and 3,4 it makes a difference. Would it be enough, I think it would. Enough to beat the Ram I dont know but it could be closer
5:03 "Sounds like someone crying" 😂 Had me dying 😂
Glad to see these type videos again. That was cool. Yall should have run em from a dig on non prep surface just to see if there's a difference.
The TRX would have done better off the line because of the wait look at no prep guys they start weighing their cars down after they lighten their cars up to get traction
Trexs eat raptors in the wild 😂
From Ford owner: Hellcat supercharger whine is unmatched OEM. And exhaust is beast too
I feel like Cleetus is preparing for truck drift nights.
I’m with Jimmy. TRX All day brother! 😎
Ford has empress me with how they took a truck with off road set up. Made it a beast like the old Lightings. Crazy. I have heard there is a way to take off the limiter of 109 make it unlimited. E85 also. How about the Shelby F150 and the TRX now.
I'd like to see a tug of war with the Raptor and the Tundra.. and then when the Tundra wins, TRX v Tundra for the finale
Well no one can deny cleetus can drive lol
Some guy at auto evolution wrote an article on this drag race, took all screenshots from your video and didn't mention your name once. The article was written by Mircea Panait. I just want to make sure that Noone is trying to rip off my man cleeter here! Love you brother keep making dope content
We need some off-road comparisons next!!
An off-road drag race would be pretty cool!
Love the video. You can not go wrong with either super truck. I love the sound of the TRX but am a Ford guy. Just subscribe to your channel. Laughed my ass off. Keep the videos coming!
Can we just take a second to realize that those are bone stock, full size trucks, trapping almost 110mph.
Extremely impressive!
Yes, bone stock $110,000 trucks.
The fact that the TRX is the base form and the Raptor R was the response, the TRX did well! I would take both but I would buy the TRX.
Raptor been out since 2010. The trx was the “answer” bud
@@joshuaearnheart2756 not the r though bud
@@joshuaearnheart2756 Alright bud light. The raptor was a neutered bitch until the TRX forced Ford to make a real truck. You're welcome MOPAR pushes true greatness.
@@EdwardVarner so great that they discontinued everything with a v8 right? They took mopar or no car to heart. Now you get no car. They had a 6.2 that was bulletproof in the gen 1 that a lot of people were supercharging anyways. Also, don’t forget they build them for a purpose. Ford actually runs all of the raptors and all of the broncos in Baja. The trx falls apart once it leaves the highway. The gen 2 was the most powerful truck on the road. The whole idea behind the daily driver Baja truck was ford. You can’t say mopar is pushing something that was never their idea. Ford had 2 generations before they ever came out with anything.
@@joshuaearnheart2756 🙄🥱
@cleetus McFarland you should look into hooking up with hotwheels or matchbox and turning your cars into toys. I have four boys and they love your videos. I know roadkill did it.
the trx sounds like a beast!!!!
The only question that matters is who will cross the Baja 1000 finish line.
No one cares
Like always the raptor is king at what they are made for never seen a stock trx finish the Baja 1000
@@Justdude1-z6i wow is that the race that beetles and Honda ridgelines also compete in. No one cares
@@mcfero1 You obviously care, 2 comments lol.
Tough day for the tires. Amazing trucks. Thanks for the cool video!
Guessing you better own a gas station to own either of these (as Cleetus does 😉)!
Exactly! A 350 diesel with a 6' lift gets around 5-7+ MPG more than both of those super trucks. Most people also don't realize how extremely light you have to be on the gas pedal to hope you can get up to 12mpg. And if you have a heavy foot then you'll average about 8 MPG.
they are both amazing trucks tbh
OMG when Zack pulled Cleetus burning the tires the whole time down the driveway I was on the floor!!!! 🤣
Rip to the back doors on the trx😂😂😂 IYKYK
just came back here after he said that in the vid lmaoo
Man that TRX looks wicked
Every time I watch your videos my head plays the song “just some gold boys never meanin no harm” 😂😂
Shoutout to James man....
The guy obviously is a mechanical wizard... but his "on camera" personality has improved 10 fold. He seems real comfortable being in front of the camera, talking more, all of that.
