@@richardgallegos6463 average anywhere from 5-10 mpg. It is a 33 gallon tank and it requires premium fuel. So, at $3 a gallon for premium you are around $60-70 per fill up. With that said, if you are buying a $91k truck and worried about MPG, I’d question your buying decision. 😁

She’s the last person I would expect to see step out of a trx haha. Nothing against her tho, she did a great job on camera and a nice bright personality. I personally would never buy a raptor or trx if I lived in the city unless you drive it only on weekends. That’s one thing I love about my 4runner trd pro. It’s big enough for everyday stuff and cargo and hauling passengers and gear, yet small and nimble enough for the tightest trails, mountainside shelf roads, and of course city parking and especially parallel parking. I know few people who had raptors who live in Baltimore and DC and ended up selling it after a few months cause it’s just such a pain.

this review is probably far more relevant to trx/raptor owners than they would admit. great work!

This thing looks like a BEAST in the real world!

So different approach to review a truck! But I like it 👌 . It really nice to know if will fit or how is to commute ! Thanks for the review !

That's awesome that you don't want to be that guy. If your truck takes up a lot of space, park it in the back of the parking lot. You'd be surprised how many people try to cram a big ass truck up front in a little bitty space just so they don't have to walk a few extra steps. Excellent video by the way I very much enjoyed it

Backing into a parking space is always easier but at 80", the over the top width is a problem. Bumper sensors are definitely a plus on that truck.

Super Helpful! Thank you!

Jill, I have a Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab with the long bed (8'). Try parking that in your garage! I don't even try, instead I park on my second driveway going to my back yard. I do have an advantage since I live on an acre of land with an orchard (primarily pecan trees). You've done very well. Driving a taller vehicle like a truck is where the adjustable pedals really come into play. I'm about 6 ft. and my wife is 4'11" so she needs to adjust the seat and pedals all the way forward and all the way up. Our next truck (which I've been looking for the past seven months) will have all the sensors.

This "small" Army truck had 2 steering wheels and 8 rear wheels all of which could be powered so it was a ten wheel drive. These were used wherever the Army & marines had units. The Navy had some, but those were usually the smaller truck (1.5 ton). I had only driven for about 8 months at the time, so it was a real challenge. Much like your challenge, an experience to have once.

Great job parking. I would have hit every curb! Thanks for the reviews

Great video on a very real experience. I have the same experience with my Ford Excursion in San Francisco. I mainly need to watch the extendable towing mirrors. Even when not extended they go pretty wide and sometimes need to fold them in at some drive-thrus and parking garages. I installed a new entertainment system that included a back-up camera to help me with parking as my XLT did not come with parking sensors. It's definitely easier to back into spaces with or without the backup camera. I'm just not intimidated anymore because being the oldest of 6 kids, I've been driving full size vans and a couple Suburbans since I was 16 on family trips. LOL.

Great video! A family member just bought a used 2019 Raptor and I got to sit in it this weekend and I was wondering how it would be to drive around. Really nice truck but very big (to me). I am girl that is a little taller than Jill but not by much. Jill you did a great job parking and driving it in the city.

Great job

Fantastic driving! Chicago is NOT big vehicle friendly. Even the Oasis can give you trouble. I tow our 30' RV Trailer with a Ram 2500 MegaCab with the 6.4 Hemi. This means I use gas not diesel. However the Oasis is not trailer friendly at the gas pumps, only the diesel pumps. I have gone through the skyway tollgates with the trailer no problem. As you pointed out, if a big rig can go there I can go there. Great vid! Thank you.
