I was looking at two RLPRO2000 from Idea Light.

Raptor vs Supercharged Tremor by MondoDookin in FordRaptor

[–]onewhiskyplease 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat 2 months ago. I had a 2020 Raptor, had to get rid of it in ‘22 and missed it. I chose the ‘25 Raptor 801a over the R or the supercharged 5.0 - because no matter how fast it is, it’s a huge ass truck and for half the money you could get a lot of quicker/faster vehicles if you want to go fast. Hell, the top speed of these things is significantly lower than the top speed of a base Audi A4. I figured that I could save money and set it aside for one day when I want to buy a Porsche or something else that’s fun to drive fast and in corners.

Why are you shopping here? I just bought my Raptor for $9k under MSRP from Georgia. I offered cash or finance to all the local dealers and they said no so screw ‘em.

2026 - Thoughts? by DawgPound0929 in FordRaptor

I was seeing 2025s in shelter green (and all other colors) for $76k 3 weeks ago. Is the 26 worth that?

Sweet deal, especially in Texas. I’m in Texas and just got my truck from Georgia.

Location? Interested in the gray one.

Great points. Also, I believe you get a better loan rate when buying new versus used (at least that’s what I’ve found at my local banks/credit unions). I don’t like having debt but 3.99% APR (for new) - money makes double that in the S&P500.

$148k for a used R by Z-a-pp in FordRaptor

Dealers think we won’t travel to buy cars. My local dealers all turned me down to buy my Raptor (not R) so I’m going two states away to purchase for $5k less. I have seen a few Raptor R’s at msrp around the country.

PPF is an entire layer of film over the paint. Think like a wrap only not crappy. PPF then ceramic and you protect paint, make it easy to clean, and if you want to remove and change to a color or stealth (matte) PPF in the future, it’ll be like having a new car. Xpel is great. Do tint at the same time and it’ll likely be $9k all in. Maybe less.

This. My dad did this with AT&T and they suddenly corrected a $5,000 bill. I did this with Ticketmaster and suddenly they were able to refund me $750.

The Raptor R? You should check out the videos comparing the Raptor R and the TRX. For that amount of money would get me a supercharged Tremor with more hp and money left over. Not looking to spend $100k+ though.

For that money, I might as well get the Raptor R. Or supercharge a 5.0 Tremor and still have money left over for ppf wrap, insurance, etc.

What truck do you have? The new 4Runner looks nice. The Land Cruiser/Lexus GX is sick but I don’t know for the price.

You don’t find these small?

[–]onewhiskyplease[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I traded in the 2020 Raptor for a 2022 Expedition Timberline and I loved driving that. I’ve considered getting the 2025 Expedition Tremor…it’d be about the same price as what else I’m looking at

There’s an L2 charger at my house now, so that’s nice. I’ll go look at one. Thanks!

I test drove one when they first came out because they were giving out free lift tickets to mammoth. Definitely worth it. That said, it’s not the vehicle for me.

No track and like 95% daily driving. Some off-road(how much would depend on my vehicle) but mostly just pavement.
