    24 Sport Mode engaging 4wd?

    V8 has more power and has to use all 4 tires to put torque on ground. V6 doesn’t and uses 2wd to reduce powertrain loss. 4A on dry road is totally fine as long as you don’t go super tight turn. Unless at stop light I will use 2wd on R for sport mode. 4A has tons of torque steering due to...

    4X4 system -> Transfer case and diff workout?

    Not an expert but you may use 4A during rainy or snowy days, or you can just use 4A & sport to have some fun at traffic lights :).

    Last year for Raptor R

    Unlikely. V8 an are coming back plus Raptor may be hard to electrified due to weight.

    Raptor R vs Cybertruck

    1. R can do 12 flat quarter time if launched properly. Feel they dragged much above sea level. 2. CT definitely has more power than advertised. R1T and Hummer SUT both lost without a big difference than R and with more hp. 3. No surprise to see R takes longer to stop. Actually Gen 3 Raptor is...

    R vs HummerEV

    Probably a tuned R can easily beat it given the weight. I heard someone tuned Mustang to 900whp once I was off-roading.

    5.2 supercharged engine production set to continue until at least 2028

    Reminds me Mercedes SE models, you can have both v8 and plugin batteries lol.

    5.2 supercharged engine production set to continue until at least 2028

    Previous rumors said 23 is the last MY for TRX, but it turns out not to be the case. Finger crossed on statement like “24 is the last MY”. Maybe MY25 TRX will receive a refresh? If ford keeps R then TRX must be here to compete and vice versa. As for hellcat challengers, they are overdue for an...

    5.2 supercharged engine production set to continue until at least 2028

    Feel there’s something wrong with EV strategy. Mercedes brought back v8 as well.

    R vs HummerEV

    Why is R bouncing back and forth after launch even with stock suspension? Is that because the tire constantly gets and then loses traction? I never feel that during launch with stock BFG though.

    R vs HummerEV

    Try again with 10% battery on Hummer EV and 10% gas on R

    Found a weirdly optioned R and have some questions, looking for thoughts.

    1. Sunroof and tailgate are of a package, so having none of them is just lack of that package. 2. Solid rock guard is standard on all Gen 3s. Replacing them with electronic-deployed version may not be a wise choice as off-roading will spread gravels on the paint without the running board...

    how do you launch this truck?

    Agree. But For me R is a perfect utility with speed, marshmallow ride on pot hole, capacity for hauling and of course appearance and interior (though none of them are best, but very descent). The only down side is handling, but definitely much better than a stock Tacoma. I once rode in GT 5.0...

    how do you launch this truck?

    Then probably 0-60 would make more sense and is also frequently used during daily :)

    2024 Markup…?

    I feel if you can wait you can have somewhere ~20k over. I took my 23 R delivery in Jan and paid 25k over.

    how do you launch this truck?

    Just realized TRX can launched at max ~2000 rpm which Raptor (R) can do as well. Given R is at least 300lbs lighter and 2hp lower than TRX, why were quarter mile results so close (12.5 / 12.7)? Also TRX full time AWD should also reduce performance in the later phase. Is the Ford 10-speed so bad...

    Raptor R CSPs

    I’ve talked with Ford and see if they could buy back. My dealer pull the cab from the frame for resealing, which brought me lots of concerns. It’s unnecessary.

    Raptor R CSPs

    Hope they would buy back. But sadly if the repair fixed issue (though I highly doubt given they let the local dealer rebuild the truck/engine), then the truck may not qualify for a Lemon.

    Raptor R CSPs

    Interesting. Not sure why my dealer did it for a month, though I saw a blue GT500 stayed there even longer than my truck, but I’m not sure if it’s for the same CSP repair. I saw the loaner car rental bill exceeds $1000 for them when I picked up my truck.

    Raptor R CSPs

    The advisor showed me the photos taken when repairing. Basically the truck cab is pulled up from the frame and most engine parts were torn apart. In some sense the engine was rebuilt. Given these repairs and chance to lemon the truck?

    Raptor R CSPs

    Ok they also scratched my wheel. Only 3000 miles on my truck. They agreed to replace a new one for me, is there anything else to concern?

    After CSP repairs dealer drove my truck for 50+ miles for testing, is this expected and acceptable?
