[QUOTE="Deleted member 17706, post: 1580887"] When a vehicle has 55% more HP than the other, I would say the other vehicle comes across as lacking HP. Is 450 HP a bunch of power? Yea, it is. But that doesn’t change the fact that one vehicle has a lot more power than the other. Point blank period? Mhm, the TRX will do 0-60 a FULL second faster (if not more) when compared to ANY stock Gen 2 Raptor. That doesn’t sound like the same truck now does it? The interior of the TRX may be more like a base Raptor, but it has a SC with 250 more HP—which is what your paying for, but you can’t seem to grasp that. To make a Gen 1 into a 700 HP beast, you are spending close to $10k on parts to do everything right (fuel pump upgrade, oil pump gears, SC, throttle body, and so on). So instead of paying for the $10k 802a package on the Gen 2, your $10k is going towards the SC and the 707 HP on the TRX. The Raptor is more capable off-road, has better fuel range, and offers more technology at $75k than the TRX, but some people don’t care about those things and don’t want their truck sounding like a weed eater as they hit the gas. This is why I said the argument can be made either way as people prioritize different things in a $75k truck. My family member that ordered his TRX has his own race cars and races in the ARCA series. He cares about one thing: going fast on pavement and the satisfaction of being able to smoke 99.99% of trucks on the road today. Going off-road and having fancy technology options does not appeal to him whatsoever. So it goes. But please continue because this is getting comical :D [/QUOTE]
