I’m considering trading my wrangler and my c8 corvette on a new 23 35 raptor.

I have little kids and the vette was something I wanted but don’t use nearly enough. If I buy the truck I won’t need the wrangler.

Anyone else shift from a sports car to a raptor?

I don’t expect the same
Performance. I’m looking for every day smiles for miles.

Thanks!!

It seems a shame to let that Corvette go. I’d say, trade the Wrangler, and sell one of the kinds into indentured servitude.

Welcome to FRF

I like fast stuff and many FRF here do too. Yes, there will be a few occasions when you hit the gas that you will think - ok, the ‘Vette would’ve been faster. But....

You won’t have to slow down for speed bumps, Pitt. is a great place where you can get some air without going too far ;-) and the Rap is INFINITELY better than any Corvette in anything south of ‘bright, sunny, warm’ conditions. You can haul 3-4 passengers, cargo in the bed, and scoff at the peasants in their peasant cars.

Exactly. Plus. I have a 2 year old and a 10 year old. I drive the vette not nearly enough to justify having it in this gray snow belt town.

I’d like to get the Raptor and then build a classic. Nova/camaro/chevelle.
