Hello everyone, I am in the market for a new F-150 and I currently have a 2015 F-150 Lariat Screw, The local dealer has a 2018 Raptor that caught my attention, How does the ride quality compare to the standard F-150? is it stiff over normal on road driving? Seams in the road and potholes? I have never road in one and I am curious what owners that have some time in them have to say, Thanks.

The Rap has a foot of suspension travel, and while it’s definitely a truck, the ride is compliant and smooth until or unless you unsettle the suspension. For what it can do, the truck is uncharacteristically civilized in day to day use. The seats are pretty much perfect; they could use bolstering if you are racing but for everything else, they are great.

Coming from a few SUVs and a plethora of exotics... I honestly love my 18 Raptor! Its smooth for day to day and years better than my JK Rubicon

The last F-150 I had was a Tremor and compared to that, the Raptor isn't quite as smooth riding, but feels far more solid. I drive on road only and I'm surprised how well it does ride and I'm very satisfied with it.
