[QUOTE="engineer, post: 1889840, member: 38992"] I am comparing the Raptor to the Range Rover not the Range Rover Sport. RR and RRS are quite different from each other. I've owned two Range Rover Sports (2016 V6 with KO2s, 2017 V8 with Cooper AT3) and a Range Rover (V6 with Cooper AT3 4S). 1) I mean isolation from bumps/imperfections, and general smoothness/comfort of the ride. The Range Rover is a much smoother ride than the Range Rover Sport (I've owned both for years) and the Raptor is comparable to the Range Rover, which puts it on-par with the Range Rover Sport (or better). They've done a fantastic job of tuning the suspension on the Raptor. 2) Maybe there's something wrong with your Raptor? M/T tires? Older/worn KO2s? Full size Range Rover has a noticeably quieter interior than the Range Rover Sport and the Raptor is comparable to the Range Rover, which puts it on-par with the Range Rover Sport (or better). 4) The 20mpg you're reading out on your dash is anywhere from 12-20% off (I believe default "offset" is 18% from the factory--you can change it with FORSCAN type tools). Calculate your actual miles driven and divide that by how much fuel you put in to see what you're really getting. My display would regularly read 21-23mpg highway (while driving 75mph), but with actual calculations I'd be getting 17-19mpg in reality. 5) Zero body roll on the Range Rover [B]Sport[/B]. I'm talking about the Range Rover, which has obscene, borderline nauseating amounts of body roll. My Raptor feels like a sports car through corners compared to the Range Rover. [/QUOTE]
