My truckless times are over :rockon:
5G black Wildtrak will be remembered and missed, she found her place in my heart. I know she’s in good hands now as a family truck.

Here’s what may happen if you’re a full car/truck person in private and work life and take a test drive out of curiosity with something you don’t plan to buy. Here it is, be warned!

Very nice looking truck Kristina. May you have many happy km with it (almost said miles). Congrats.

6G Raptor week 40, Wildtrak `22 2.0 diesel - sold
Thank you everyone :)
For the moment I have not much feedback about her. Drove her home and kind of all. Nothing like my 5G. Everything is different. All settings need to be corrected. Only exhaust noise is on sport and I got her on my app.
Code Orange seems during daylight red but in dark it’s orange. And compared to my precious black 5G that thing seems huge.

Here’s the first load she delivered, a pizza. The truck performed nicely.
The bed has lights, compared to 5G it’s shorter but wider, sadly less tie down points than my Wildtrak had. Swing out toolbox will come only if really need it, I also need all the room in the bed.
Tailgate straps are orange and I refused tailgate assist.

Could we get some interior shots pahweese! Me specifically would like to see the sun visors, over head console and interior light if its not too much trouble ?
It’s been raining last days and me myself really busy. She got dirty on second day but as it’s a Raptor I think they should not be diamond shining clean all the time so I’m not planning to bath her.
I’ll upload some interior pictures soon when I’ll get familiar with her, still haven’t found the time to check everything out like everyone does with new vehicles.
I even haven’t found time to go through all the menu settings, I use only the basics and drive in RWD.?
And admire how big and orange a truck can be. After black it’s a little… unexpected? ?

The same 10R80 works very smoothly, amazing! Ask for sudden acceleration and then you can feel how it shifts down to gain power, driving normally no shifts are felt. Both 6G Raptors with 3 liter V6 petrol engines I’ve driven shift similar and 2 liter diesel 5G is different of them.
And you can’t turn on info on dash about which speed you’re in like on 5G just by hitting + on stick but you can ask the truck to show it to you for few seconds. Compared to my 5G diesel the new Raptor shifts way more earlier. She’s a “truck baby” at the moment and needs driving so not sure if it’ll be that way.
Day 2, getting used to new shifter. Yes, you need that time.

Great looking truck Kristina - I didn’t know there were cactus in Estonia. How about that. :wink:
