GEN3 Ford Raptor R Owner Pics!

Hard R said:

I drove 3000 miles from West Virginia to SoCal averaging 11mpg.

Took it on the dirt over the weekend and averaged 8.5mpg @ 20psi.

IMHO, the R is extremely unpractical as a daily driver. This is strictly my fun/dirt vehicle.

I did a 40 roll and 60 roll drag race with a '23 EB Raptor and yes the R won, but barely lol.

I am not sure my R is much faster than my Goose tuned 2019 at my 6500 ft elevation.

Agreed. The r is overhyped. I love it but it's slow(for me anyways). Sounds good though and is faster than majority of vehicles on the road. If I want a street race I'll grab the mclaren lol

That's why I can't wait for the new supercharger and tune to be ready.

On a different note.. I changed my oil for the 2nd time(first time at 800 miles, this time at 3,800 miles).. oil was BLACK. I believe this engine needs oil changing every 3k minimum. My eb raptor changed oil at 5k- oil you could still see thru it(just for reference).
The oil I use for the r is 5w-50 Motorcraft full syth.

No bash. But you must have a really poor running R. I have not been in any tuned 3.5 that will run with the R. I am sure they are out there, but they have a butt load of work, ie. larger turbos etc. installed to pull an R.

No the R is not going to run with your Mclaren (lets see pictures) but it is still very froggy.

Also, if your oil is that black you may have something going on. Yes a forced induction engines oil is darker but it shouldn't be that bad. Mine is at 3K miles and still looks like honey.

My r runs great! It's powerful but it's certainly not amazing. A 23 tuned eco will keep up with it(when tuning is available).

Nice 600LT. Good track car. Not a great street racer though. Not knocking it at all. Your color combo is great.

It's a street racer. Stage 3 kit pure 900 turbos. It's a weapon

Thanks bud for the compliment. I like it
