You will never convince me that it is a bargain for at least $15k more. lol

I needed towing capacity over 8500lbs. Raptor can't do that from the factory.

As for the 4.10s, it needs at least that rear gear due to having the 35s and it gets poor gas mileage because it rolls on big meats.

The shocks don't impress me, I don't run the baja....

If I want to tow I use one of my 2500's or 3500's. If you drove one the shocks would impress you because this is the best riding and handling 4wd truck I've ever owned and I've have many. Like I said, I bought because there is nothing else like it on the road and I like unique vehicles. To me a GT500 and a ZL1 are both bargains too for what you get. Many people have your same thought about them because you can get cheaper versions of the same cars. That wasn't my point. Like I said in an earlier post, you have to drive one to appreciate what it is.


Glad you're happy with the truck you have.
