[QUOTE="bruin1md, post: 1746545, member: 57135"] I'm going to be the voice of dissent here regarding your analogy/comp. I've owned 2 Porsches (997.2 GTS, 987 Cayman S), 2 BMW's (one being a M car) and an Audi S5. None of those cars you're referring to are engineered trucks that can be beaten up off road and can also literally jump curbs and sand dunes.....and also rock crawl. It took serious engineering by Ford's racing team to come with the Raptor. I can't speak for the TRX. I think trucks as a whole are getting to be insanely overpriced, but that's a reflection of that entire market, which in turn is driven by an ever growing demand for trucks coupled with massive improvements in performance and ride quality. The best analogy if you want to state the case that the TRX and Raptor are overpriced would be to compare them to a Mercedes G wagon...... which is the only comparable luxury vehicle made by any of the Germans that can do what these trucks can do off road. Talk about overpriced. I would take a Raptor all day long over that douchemobile. I've driven a GLE AMG 53 and you want to talk about problems with a vehicle that comes out to nearly $90K, and with a horrible depreciation curve? Yes, the fit and finish seem amazing brand new.......but then watch how fast that thing shows its true colors once the warranty wears off. [/QUOTE]
