I was actually pretty disappointed i dont know if its where it was but its looked like a basic truck sitting super low. Im thinking its the base raptor but it made really consider thinking about the trx. The Ford guy didnt know anything he said it was a 37 inch package which is def not.
Lol what basic truck looks like that?

Just got back from the show and all I can say is WOW, the new Raptor is amazing. When you get your new Raptor make sure you put a towel in it to wipe the drool marks off of it. Ford did an amazing job on fit, finish, styling and everything else. The TRX can’t even hold a candle to it. When the “R” comes out Dodge might as well go back to making the Valient

Thank you for the nuanced, unbiased, clearly believable review.

On that note.. when do official publication reviews typically come out? With production (allegedly) underway, I'd have thought we'd see some by now.

I was at the Chicago Auto Show yesterday and saw and sat in the Gen 3 truck. At first I thought the truck was black, but up close it was very dark blue with a lot of metal flake (Antimatter Blue). The area was also dimly lit, so that it probably why it looked darker.
I only took a few pictures of it since there was quite a crowd around it when I tried to look at it up close. Also, the drivers seat was much softer than I expected and very comfortable.

Looks pretty cool. Whats the silvery area behind the pseudo cowl induction looking hood? Is it reflection or painted that way?

Did we confirm that there is the camera inside pointed at the driver verifying that it has Blue Cruise prep? Would like to put that one to rest.
