    2019 depreciation vs lower trim level F-150

    Wow, thanks for the awesome reply! Funny how similar our situations were, especially in that my wife has been telling me for weeks to just buy the Raptor. She doesn't manage the finances though so I take a lot of that encouragement with a grain of salt. Before I noticed your reply I typed...

    2019 depreciation vs lower trim level F-150

    It's that intangible visceral experience that brought the Raptor to my radar in the first place, and the hardest for me to put a number on. To be honest I'm likely to be one of those that rarely gets their's off road. I initially discounted the Raptor from my shopping list because I knew I'd...

    2019 depreciation vs lower trim level F-150

    I'll start out by saying what I'm asking for is essentially "best guesses", but figured some input from others wouldn't hurt. I'm really close to moving forward on a 2019 Raptor for invoice and what I feel is a more than fair valuation on my trade. However, I can't turn a blind eye to the...

    GEN 2 My prediction on the 5.2

    So you guys with the M3s, 911's, and S6's; in your opinion, is the Raptor the closest thing you can get to an involved driving experience without actually owning two vehicles? I've been looking hard at Raptors as a way to get back into something that's more involving/fun to drive, but also...

    Am I a poser if I buy a Raptor?

    Been a lurker here for a little while now and finally decided to join, in part due to the similarity of my situation to the OP's question. I've been looking at F150's for some time now and almost purchased a Platinum several weeks ago. Held off because I simply didn't feel like it was worth...
