I wish the raptor came with the lariat's LED tail lights and rear windscreen with the window. They look awesome!
I wonder if either one are interchangeable?

I agree with the LED tail lights but unless they put a remote slider on the rear window it's useless! I never used the one in my Tacoma one time in 3.5 years and will never use this one either. I know if I ever opened it I'll forget to close it.

Hey everyone! I'm new to the forum and I'm coming from a 2018 Colorado 6 speed manual. Unfortunately I totalled it in an accident earlier this week. I'm lucky to be alive so I'll give Chevy credit, for a front impact at 60 mph, it actually handled it pretty well.

I've had my eye on the new Ranger so I decided to go ahead and make the swap and wow, I couldn't be happier! The biggest challenge is getting used to not having a clutch anymore, such a strange feeling as every vehicle I've owned since I was 18 has been a manual, this is my first automatic.

I'm glad I'm ok too, herniated disc in my neck, bruised lung and dislocated shoulder is way better than being dead lol!

Sport mode is basically all I've been driving in pretty amazing how big of a difference there is between drive and sport. My butt Dyno can really feel it lol! Can't wait for my GFB diverter valve + bov to come in *choo choo*

I know the feeling as I was in the same boat. So far I really don't miss it as much as I thought I would. Must be the increasing traffic in the area. :headbang:

"Calibrated Assometer!"

I love it!! I'm using that hahahaha

And as for missing the manual, I'm in the same boat, I actually don't seem to miss it as much as I thought I would. I figured I would absolutely HATE it, but it's not bad at all, in fact, I actually kind of like the fact that I can have both hands free, one kept on the wheel, and the other on the hand brake My Colorado had a click lock foot E-brake so powersliding was damn near impossible unless I was on gravel or it was wet pavement.
