I'm thinking about getting a new 2014 raptor. I've done some research but I'm wondering what everyone else's opinions are on them.
Thanks

Well what do you want to know? They're badass. They're luxury and sport in one.

They look great and I am sure have awesome off road capability. Now...how often are you going to take your brand new Raptor off road? Answer this question and you will know if you truly need one.

I've always liked these trucks and they look awesome but at the same time I wonder isn't it really something you could do to a 4wd f150 for way less?

They are fantastic all the way around and tons of fun off road. Nevada has some fantastic places to get the truck filthy. Super comfortable and they tow well too. My only gripe was the fuel mileage... typically low double digits in mixed driving. When I bought mine, my commute to the office was under 5 miles. Now it's almost 20. I just drive way too much. I put nearly 40k miles on mine in 2 years. I remember one month of heavy driving where I put $1500 worth of dead dinosaurs into that truck. I miss everything about it except the mileage.

Mileage sucks but a lot of trucks have bad mileage. I've been contemplating the ecoboost tremor

Thanks for the replys
To answer your questions I plan on taking it off road every once in awhile.... Basically I want something nice but still fun, And I'm thinking if I do get it I might put the rousch super charger but I need to locate a dealer that works with rousch

I have a Raptor X on the lot. Oxford white and Roush charged. If you want a new one you're almost out of time. This is the last year before a hiatus for the Raptor.

They need to make that bronco with an eco boost.
