Difficult Decision

[Enersol]

So I just got a 2019 Raptor two months ago. I had it for 500 miles and it burned to the ground. The only thing left was the frame. Now for the difficult decision... I was lucky enough to find a 2022 801A that someone backed out on and it is done with the build and now waiting on shipping. But for the same amount of money I have found a 2019 Shelby Raptor with 20,000 miles. Normally it would be a no brainer to go with the 2022, but it doesnt have the tailgate step, and I fell in love with that. Any thoughts or opinions? Lucky for me my insurance had a feature that pays me an additional 20% of actual cash value to the payout, so that justifies either truck.

Go with the ‘22. Shelby is an aftermarket package, not worth it IMO.

I would get the 22 myself, too much mark up on a SHelby for what you get. I like the looks of the Gen 3 better than the 1st or 2nd gens, but thats me.

Go with the Gen 3. You might be able to find a tailgate with a step on ebay. Someone selling it after going to a different rear set up.

As FTO stated, the Shelby is nothing more than a sticker package.

Gen 3 because... warranties, nicer upgrades. The Shelby only has the advantage of more power.

 

[TerribleONE]

Gen 3 all day.

I think everybody in here, including me, will say Gen 3.
