2017 Ford F-150 Raptor | Road Test

The Raptor is packed full of upgrades to become a desert-ruling rock hopper.

I LOVED the first Raptor! What a fantastic looking truck. I was lucky enough to have a good friend who bought one right away and of course we put it through the wringer. Really disappointed to see how bad it lost to another friend's H3 Alpha in an all out race. It just seemed like that 6.2 lacked severe down low oomph

Nice truck, glad to see it improved...not sweating the v6...they're plenty fast. ..way better than a jeep for everyday use

So modern John Davis talks louder but slower than 80's John Davis

I grew up driving small turbo charge engines. I had to have a 2016 F165. What is a F165 you ask? A F150 with the 2.7 liter twin turbo 165 cuin v6 ecoboost. I raced a guy driving a 2010 Silverado with a 5.3 and he was drunk when I walked away from him at a stop light. My truck was 6 months old 100% stock. He thought I had turned up the boost.

[derekdreke]

Man Nissan should have done he warrior these guys sold allot of those trucks and I feel they did a pretty good job. Time will tell

[goldenretriever]

My dad bought one of these trucks

And he ended up being spoiled by the trucks fuel economy

now he doesn’t understand that a truck like this IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A V8

He now has the current V6 raptor and won’t get the raptor R

WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM FORD

[timoo]

This can keep up with my e36 0-60, I want one.

[ziggyduchnowski]

Be ready to have transmission problems and cam phaser noise

[bradnimbus]

Curious, who did the sand driving? Motorweek?

[trashpanda]

Just came from another motorweek video where a 2.7 ecoboost F150 did the same 0-60.

[nukesaway]

18 mpg for a v6 this whole vehicle makes no sense. Aluminum 5500 lbs? Compact car 0-60 and quarter times for 50000 bucks?

[michaelallen]

If you guys actually tested that with 87 octane regular, you should delete this video. Considering you left at least 50 foot pounds of torque on the table. And improved fuel economy.

[TBird]

4:54 - Yeah, Ram does, it's called the Rebel.

Amazig car! They sell for €120k in europe

I've looked up to this man for 30-yrs to be impartial and on point but when he said it was 3-seconds faster THAN THE 6.2 WAS THE RAPTOR ENGINE VERY ;VERY; DISAPPOINTING JOHN...

[christianhinman]
