That's Awesome!I went and looked at a '26 Raptor in Marsh Gray. Numbers lined up. Ended up driving it home. Besides hearing crap from the wife (didn't come to telling her to shut the hell up), I really hesitated to trade in Oppie, the perfectly good 5G. But the extended ride home helped to ease that remorse. Damn the Raptors are nice!
Nice looking RR now get off road with it and give us the full 411 on how it is.
Well that's one thing that I hesitated about, it will likely never do any real off-roading. It will plow some snow, and maybe the occasional kayaking trip to a remote put in, but that's about it. Probably never equip the upfit switches or whatever they're called. Heck, might even hit the malls more often.lol I knew it was only a matter of time before you caved in and bought it!
But it will hold value better than the XLT.
Just remember it's 303 and all the rest is junk snake oil!Well that's one thing that I hesitated about, it will likely never do any real off-roading.

Might even have to invest in some 505 or 202 or whatever snake oil that was.....LOL.
Congrats on the new ride, Raptor, very nice. 3.0 or 2.7? If the 3.0 does it have dual injection? I know the 2.7 does, not sure on 3.0, Ive heard a bit of back and forth on this. I plan on changing my 19 Ranger for an XLT with the 2.7 after Wife and I move...I went and looked at a '26 Raptor in Marsh Gray. Numbers lined up. Ended up driving it home.

The Raptor only comes with the 3.0 and it's direct injection
Thats what Ive been hearing, odd too since the 2.7 which has dual injection is basically the same motor as the 3.0! Only difference as far as I know is either bore or stroke...based off what I have heard..
Congrats! Awesome truck. Ford really out did them selves with this truck. The motor and suspension is superb.I went and looked at a '26 Raptor in Marsh Gray. Numbers lined up.

Just tell her they're not pew pews and they identify as a purse.
