[QUOTE="Fodded_Cockpit, post: 1315212, member: 15360"] Absolutely still a great buy. Just bought my second one, a '14 Screw with 84xxx miles. The first owner really took care of it and was in outstanding condition. I was looking between the Subaru Ascent and another Raptor, I opted to get another Raptor and love it. Even if I had the money to afford the Gen 2, I would still choose a Gen 1 because of the V8 engine. The Ascent is a great vehicle with all the bells and whistles, but it just doesn't have any personality. TFL Truck did a comparison between a Gen 2 Raptor and a Subaru Outback in the snow, the Outback was OK, but struggled going uphill in the snow.Raptor outperformed the Outback in all the tests and was eager for more. The resale value on this vehicle is awesome. Where I'm at, they still retail anywhere from $40k and up depending on the mileage and year (As of Dec. 23, 2018). Tacoma also has a good resale value, but like another member here said, "they're not even in the same universe" in comparison nor do they have the personality as the Raptor does. You just have to do some due-diligence when shopping to make sure you find a good condition one. These are sport vehicles after all. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
