Traded my Raptor - A Cautionary Tale

That's nice.

Then it's not a Raptor. It's an F150 with Sport Mode.

Don't confuse the two.

No one is confusing the two. The OP has an F150 and is regretting the trade. That's why I posted this pic

And just to be clear, a Raptor is an F150 with shocks, longer arms and some added computer nannys. This F150 is more capable than any stock Raptor.

Precisely why I cashed in on the value of my 2011 but did not move to another truck. That sort of move is cursed; you'll forever compare the new truck to your old Raptor and it will never measure up.

When I made my move, I went to a sports sedan. It's a totally different beast and I don't expect it to measure up to the Raptor. It will tide me over nicely until the second year of the new Raptor (2018) is out, then I can reassess and decide if I want another Raptor or not.
