    Not holding the steering wheel properly at 3 and 9 o'clock may cost him his (and maybe others) life someday in many different circumstances...... I fell asleep driving home after nightshift one time, and because i was holding the steering wheel properly, I woke up when my arms hit my legs. If I had been holding the steering wheel with one hand at the bottom, may not be writing this now...

    On exhaust note I love the sound of the TRX. Raptor R sounds damn good too. Hummer might be faster on asphalt but it wouldn't keep up with the Raptor R or TRX off road. I'd be curious how close of a race it would be with matched gear ratios. I know TFL only tests how they come from the OEM. I'm thinking the Raptor R has it's slight edge because of the 4:10 rear end and weighing 500lbs less than the TRX.

    I was thinking the same thing from early in the video - put the RaptoR on low profile, light wheels and sticky tires - let's see what it can do then with the lowered gearing and much lower unsprung weight. Put the truck on the dyno and compare as well - you will see big gains in HP and Torque the lighter you can go on the wheel/tire combo. Excellent video!

    The American carmaker issued a total of 67 recalls in 2022, a full 22 recalls more than the next highest manufacturer, Volkswagen, which filed 45 recalls. Daimler Trucks follows closely behind at 42 recalls in 2022, with Stellantis coming up fourth at 38 recalls. Rounding out the top five with 35 recalls is Forest River Inc., a recreational vehicle manufacturer. Out of those 67 recalls, 12 of them are powertrain related, according to the DOT. A further eight recalls had to do with "back over prevention," which usually relates to back-up cameras or sensors malfunctioning. Other causes for recalls at Ford include electrical system faults, fuel system problems, and airbag malfunctions. Ford has been dealing with quality issues for years. It's struggled to launch new models on time and recalls, complaints, and warranty claims have weighed heavily on service departments, driving down the company's bottom line. In a recent interview, CEO Jim Farley said fixing quality was the brand's "number one priority," and that "it’s going to take several years" to make it right.

    The Raptor R nails it! It’s got the looks, it’s got the most fantastic burly V-8 sound and just flat out hauls arse! And I suspect that the Hummer was making more than its 1,000 initial rated hp simply because of how fast and hard it launched that 9,000+ pound lead sled. That instant torque from those electric motors was wild. And that Carolina squat. It was entertaining to watch as it kicked the Raptor R’s beak. Until it splat faced against the speed governor.

    So what? The RAM weighs 500 pounds more even with the smaller tires and it has 18 inch wheels vs the 17 inch wheels on the raptor. The TRX has brakes that are over one inch bigger than the Raptor R’s. The TRX also has heavier duty D load rated tires versus the Raptors C rated which makes them heavier per inch. So in total the one inch bigger wheels, higher load rating, and 1+ inch bigger brakes are heavier in rotational mass than the 2 inch bigger tires on the Raptor. The Raptor also has a 4.1 final ratio vs the TRX 3.55 & 10 speed transmission vs the 8 speed on the RAM so any gearing advantage of the smaller tire diameter is nullified plus some.

    The stock BFGs on my Gen 2 were maxed out at 109, better off-road tires are less than that. The V6 is best for off-road applications - but the TRX and R are marketed to those who care more about theoretical specs than actual performance off-road. If you wanted to really be fast on the road you'd get a HO 3.5 Platinum or a Lightning. A tuned Gen 2 will outpace a TRX, but they usually die after about 100k.

    Honestly, ole Henry would probably be rolling in his grave. The man was extremely resistant to change and technology. He initially wanted to keep all Model T's 4 cylinders and didn't like the idea of adding a V8 the lineup and he also refused to incorporate hydraulic brakes even years after his competitors started using them, maintaining the added complication wasn't worth the benefit over mechanical brakes. I say all this as a Ford guy who thinks the Raptor R is cool as hell, but it just is what it is, or more appropriately was what it was.
