Ah jeez, let's not give Pep Boys any ideas for the Brodozer section, ok?

The splash graphic from the circa 2010 Raptor no less. '11, '12 and '13 have less and less "digital mud", haven't seen what the '14 overpriced factory vinyl option looks like.

"During the presentation, it was confirmed that the Reaper will be sold through Chevrolet dealers, and while each dealer will reserve the right to set prices, the tab is "expected to start in the mid 50,000's."

Fox remote-reservoir shocks in the front imply that the suspension on this thing would be (assuming it makes it to production) far better than a stock Raptor. Also, far more expensive, probably about 3x as expensive. This is a typical Stage 3 suspension upgrade component on a Raptor.

I paid 43k for a nearly base Raptor in 2012. When I priced an Extended Cab Ram Runner out with matching options, it was not cheaper, not even close.

I owned a TJ Wrangler before, all of those vehicles you mentioned are indeed far better suited for tight trails and technical stuff, given enough clearance, the Raptor can conquer those tasks, but it is limited. Take any other 4wd vehicle on the market and try to drive faster than oh 30mph across some ruts and woops

Bring it! The more the merrier.

1st video also shows how NOT to share a video, so much fail.

He probably would've found himself in far more trouble than *just* losing his job, for overlooking that bottle.

Also, quit trying to beat Toyota and Honda at their beigity-beige appliance-mobile game. Give what's left of your captive audience the German engineered value, fit and finish that you had niche success with before. The people that buy Hondas and Toyotas never even give VW a thought, they perceive anything VW makes as

Going along with that last piece of advice, the highway may not be the best way for you to get places in really awful weather. Minor roads can be dangerous, but they might be better than a highway.

Seriously, these comments are downright scathing, but I agree. Honda hasn't made a single vehicle I care about, since about the time they killed the S2000 off.

The TJ is long gone now, but it was most definitely doing 0-60 in ~7. Why did we time it? Because we were 17 year old kids wondering how the hell a Jeep Wrangler was doing holeshots faster than a friend's Z28. The Z would blow past it as soon as the Jeep went for 3rd gear, but the 4.0 is no slouch, not in the later

I had a '98 TJ with the 4.0 with 3:73's on 31's, stock it would do 0-60 ~ 8 sec. With some simple bolt on mods it did 0-60 in 6.5. I'm not sure what was wrong with yours but mine was an absolute beast with gobs of torque off the line. I put 183,000 trouble-free miles on it, besides a cracked exhaust manifold

Nice, mall crawler bro wheels!

It sure sounded like it, I thought the same thing, but probably more like the ATC cutting out the throttle on wheel(track)spin because he forgot to poke the button and disable it.

Yeah, so it most certainly affects your ability to offset the parking position in the space and give yourself a bit more room for the doors on the driver's side. It may seem like a marginal amount, but it's a noticeable difference compared to parking/exiting a regular F150. I completely avoid driving it when the

I realize it's pretty terrible mileage, not a good daily driver. But, it's only averaging 2MPG worse than the Ford Ranger 4x4 I had before it. You should see the mileage these 6.2's get in the Superduties, you're lucky to break 12MPG.

I make a habit of parking far away from everyone else and avoid driving it to cities all together, but if I ever caught someone fucking with my vehicle like that, they'd be in for a dirt nap. Don't be a dick.
