Supercharged gen 1 will blow the doors off that 10 speed whatever gen 2 that sounds like a bumble bee
Supercharged Gen 1’s can barely outrun a stock Gen 2. Tune only Gen 2’s are faster than S/C Gen 1s.

Only 3 posts in and you’re already proving to be an ignorant fanboy and making a fool of yourself. Way to go newb.

Generational love is always a hot topic.

I'm not going to pick sides, I'm just going to be 100% honest from my perspective of being an OG Raptor owner and gear head.

I loved everything about my Gen 1 scab. I also loved my Gen 2 scab, a definite improvement in suspension and interior/seats over the Gen 1, but I very much missed the V8 from my Gen 1. When Ford announced the Gen 3 will be the same TT V6 and no more scabs I bought a TRX. Not sure if the TRX would compete with my prior Raptors offroad, but that supercharger whine and 702 HP bring a silly smile to my face just like my Gen 1 did, and for me, if it doesn't make you smile then it's just transportation.

They’re not “collector” vehicles. No generation was limited production nor hand built, especially not Gen 1, which shared almost everything aside from the suspension and fenders with a standard F-150. Gen 2/3 are much more exclusive in design/components and powertrain, but are still not limited production trucks.

It remains to be seen whether the 2023 R will be limited production and therefore more exclusive.
Like I said don’t know shi! But thinks he does hating cause he got that bumble bee :)
 

Irregular F150

Meh. I didnt buy a g1 not to drive, ive wanted one since they came out but couldn’t afford it. I finally got a 13 screw in terrain last year and have been smiling ever since. To me i dont see the point of buying a vehicle just to let it sit around no matter how collectible or rare they are. I want to enjoy every minute driving it cause idk when my last day is…. :)
