Got to love the rear drum brakes. I'm x shopping the taco pro and the Chevy ZR2.

Very reliable. Its a Ford F-150 at the end of the day. Parts are plentiful and cheap might I add... Granted I'm comparing to Porsche and MB worlds.

2+ years and 46k miles and only problems are self induced. I offroad mine pretty hard and my only recommendation is if you’re going to run it hard off road don’t get a sunroof. And I highly recommend running them hard off road. As much fun as tracking a GT3.

14 Cayenne GTS - still think it’s the best driving SUV I’ve experienced.

Honestly, with that style of wheel, I’m only reminded of its drum brakes on the Internet only. They’re hidden behind that wheel and out of sight.

The truck is fantastic, highly recommended.

New daily. Was looking for suv/cuv that’s not to big with 4 doors awd and a great sounding exhaust. Having experienced the 5.0 v8 supercharged before made this a pretty easy decision oncethey announced it

Based on the raving reviews of the Raptor in this thread I went and drove a 3k mile 2018 yesterday. I wanted to love it, I really did, but I just couldn't. It felt cheap and underpowered. I guess the Tacoma beater stays for now.

If the Raptor felt underpowered compared to a Taco, you were either doing it wrong or something was seriously wrong with that particular truck.

I didn't say "compared to the Tacoma." I just said it was underwhelming, and no need to trade the Tacoma. The transmission was annoying too, constantly shifting. Maybe it's because I have a decent desert vehicle background, but the Raptor felt like little more than some big tires and mild lift on an F-150.

Surprised me because I've bought vehicles based on feedback on the forum, and the feedback has been on point. But I'm 180 out on this one.
