5 Things I hate about my Gen 3

[Bubbasuwannee]

Figured after 6500 miles on my Gen 3 I'd put together a couple of videos of the top things I like and don't like about my Gen 3 Raptor. First up is what I don't like.

I agree with the missing phone controls on the steering wheel and the carbon fiber package. I remember the first call I got and I went scrambling trying to find a button to answer it haha. Also, I do wish the carbon fiber was more pronounced especially since we pay almost 1k for the package.

My gen 2 carbon package was much nicer. Seriously not sure what Ford was thinking with the carbon package this go around.

There’s a thread here somewhere showing Gen 2 stock Dyno vs Gen 3 stock Dyno. Gen 3 is improved along the lines you requested if I remember correctly.

Goosetuned thread in gen 3 Performance forum.

I saw that, but also saw conflicting information from another source on one of the FB groups. At the end of the day, the Ford advertised numbers speak volumes. Personally it's still got plenty of power, but still surprised Ford didn't give a bump seeing how it was a full re-design.

Agreed with your thinking. I would trust Goosetuned’s data since he posted screenshots of the dyno runs.

Why post a video when a bullet point list would be ten times easier? I'm not about to waste my time with a video. Just sayin'

I'm surely fine with some hidden/un-advertised power. Truck does seem to have a slight boost down low like some have mentioned, but definitely nothing substantial over my 19' based on my butt dyno. I'll have my 2nd video out next week. Spent a good bit of time driving offroad in the Colorado Rockies a week ago. Shocker...truck definitely didn't disappoint offroad.

No worries man. Been doing the YT thing for a few years now and enjoy doing some videos on various topics. figured this was a worthy discussion.

Yeah, just type out the 5 things. I hate watching those type videos. I realize it's probably your income but all the jibber jabber on those videos is generally a waste of time. Just not for me. Did not watch.
