    There's a wait for parts so that's a definite deterrent.

    Newbie

    2017-19 have cam phaser issues. I'd get a 2010 or 2020 or newer.

    First Moab Trip

    I'm thinking of moving to Grand Junction this fall. Too wet and crowded in the PNW.

    First Moab Trip

    I've been going to Moab since 93 and it never gets old. I took my Gen1 down last fall and finally got it up to speed on a desert 2 track. What a rush!

    Riding rough. Suspension question.

    Also Raptors take a bit to get used to. Especially on asphalt/concrete. Go offroad ASAP.

    Riding rough. Suspension question.

    Rebuild or replace shocks and then evaluate from there as long as the tires are still good.

    Talked myself into a Gen 1

    Nice buy! If I. Could've found a 14 I would've but love my 6.2 2010 SCAB. spend the $$ on the suspension and a SVC rear bumper and dovetail it. You won't regret it.

    GEN 2 Sold my Raptor and couldn’t be happier

    I bought my Gen1 because I didn't trust the Ecoboost 3 years ago. I'd buy a Gen3 or Raptor Bronco though. Maybe 2nd year run.

    Overheated the Raptor

    Stay within tow capacity.

    Paint imperfection

    I'd make them repaint it unless your good with a graphic to cover it. If it's just the clearcoat that's a relatively easy fix.

    Got to check out some Bronco Raptors today

    I have a feeling the next model year will have better bodywork and fender flares. It sounds like a capable offroad rig.

    Gen 3 worth it? Debating backing out for TRX

    Only you can make that deci sion. I'd get the Gen3 because it's a good size and you could daily it in town with better mpg.

    First long trip in my Gen1

    Sounds like a great trip. I went from Washington to Colorado and back last fall in my 2010. It was very comfortable and did some wheelin in Moab and Silverton

    Been waiting for a V8 Raptor since 2015. Sucks about Raptor R's fate

    I agree with other that you should get a Gen3 or TRX now and enjoy it instead of waiting for possibly years on the R. There's no doubt Ford can make the 5.2 work. We're at the end of the ICE and with chip shortages and everything else it might be a 1 or 2 year only truck for $100k minimum.

    I'll take a Raptor with a 5.0L please...

    Ues the 5.2 The 5.2 Predator crate motor is a better option.

    Was There a Time When…

    Bought mine 2 years ago and it gives me a smile everytime I drive it. I could've bought a Gen2 but the V8 is what I wanted.

    What raptor look do u like better? Gen 1 Gen 2 gen 3?

    What raptor look do u like better? Gen 1 Gen 2 gen 3?

    For me the Gen1 fenders, hood and besides are iconic. GEN2 SCREW is hard to beat for looks especially the front clip. Gen3 front end isn't the best looking but the 4 links rear and fixing the cam phaser issue is worth the extra $$ 2020 Gen2 and the 2010 are said to be the most reliable.

    What raptor look do u like better? Gen 1 Gen 2 gen 3?

    If you want all the tech and luxury interior go Gen3. It's hands down better than the Gen2. If you want a V8 and the original Raptor that you're not afraid of wearing muddy boots in get the Gen 1. I have a 10 6.2 with no complaints. And I paid $28 for it cash.
