I think their new Hybrid motor is better than eco boost. So you can’t even get the best f150 motor in their halo vehicle.
2022 Raptor Confirmed to get V8 from GT500

Why did ram state that the tire carrier and the spare would accommodate 37’s? Will they not fit?

Not a factory option. Made it 37" capable.

I just do not think the new Raptor is a game-changer. The TRX looks like it will still be all alone at the top."Please... just name your price, and we'll give it to you!" Anyone checked Ford's stock price since the reveal?
Is that a serious comment?
Didn’t you guys say 37s won’t fit without a lift?

Little ass clown!That comment is even more awesome now. Where is that little ass clown that made a video of how awesome this truck would be based solely on the fact they used a metálica song now? Spend al their reveal dollars on licensing to Metálica I guess
Same question different way... will the truck work on 37s ?
well its up 4% today. But they will have to discount that truck if RAM can make enough TRXs to keep up with demand. I tried to like it.... but I was lost with the rock stacking stuff, and the sad little boy driving the truck. I just didnt get it."Please... just name your price, and we'll give it to you!" Anyone checked Ford's stock price since the reveal?
I did like the blue color in the TFL video. I liked the 37s, the exterior looks were good except the front view - looked like a shoe box. The interior I found inferior to the RAM..... and orange stitching????? WFT, im a UGA fan, why would I want orange stitching. I would have to darken that out with a sharpie.... guy that put that in there must be a florida fan.
The most disappointing truck reveal I have ever seen. I would say choice 1: TRX, choice 2: Hummer, choice 3: 2022 trail boss (at least it has a v8 and no orange stitching)

They didn't really make it a clear understanding. Wouldn't surprise me if they offer a factory lift kit option since the "baby" Raptor can get a 37.
I'm with ya. Some cool tidbits in there... but without the V8, it just isn't a "real" competitor yet.
ford interiors suck....was always my biggest hurdle to pulling the trigger on a raptor
How I feel after that reveal:
Buddy calls me up and says he has me setup with an LSU cheerleader, and shes HOT. Im like all excited and ready to party..... then she walks up

There were some nice new options. Factory 37's, more travel 14" front 15" rear and the linked rear is nice (I know TRX already has that). Chassis wise it should be pretty good off road. I just don't want the V6. Not due to power or sound but reliability. I'd take an NA 7.3 or SC V8 over the Ecoboost.
I don’t know about how the 37’s are going to work out.... this is from the MT release vid....
it’s not even moving and look at the rear tire rub....????

I will get one at some point but not in a rush. Agreed they had some small wins in there. They haven't announced power numbers. Only way they can salvage this situation is if its north of 600hp. Ford lost this one.

They do look way too close. They look tighter on that truck than they do on the GEN2.

I just can't believe they kept that disaster of an engine! Mine was in the shop almost every 6 to 8 months with engine problems. I can't imagine them trying to add more power to that platform either. The eco boost is a joke. That was my 1st and last Ford purchase as what could be more important to a new car than having a reliable engine? RAM smashed it for sure and I absolutely love my new truck!
