The parking challenges were the straw that broke the camel's back for me, BUT, i was trying to make the Raptor my DD. If it was a 3rd car, only used for weekend outdoor stuff, snowboarding trips or runs to home depot, like the way it seems many do here, I'd still have it.

I had a Raptor go by me yesterday WFO (old motorcycle term). In other words, in anger (floored). Didn't sound like any pickup I've ever heard. Now I want one....

It is because of this thread that I just bought an ingot silver 2018 Raptor to match my GT Silver 2017 991.2 TT cab!
You guys are nothing but a bunch of enablers! Ha!

@amiNY
I have a full size RR so it may be different, but on the **** you use to move the steering wheel you turn it (either clockwise or counter) and it will move on exit. It doesn't activate until you open the door, so kind of annoying because that's when you want to hop out but wait a second and it's all good. Also my car does have some sort of turning headlights but it is very minimal so perhaps your car does but just not as pronounced as the porsche system. I went from macan s to full size at the beginning of the year because of second kid and love it. Great driving position, comfortable, and quiet. There are small electronic gremlins. Like sometimes the nav screen takes like 10 seconds to go from black and turn on, but everything functions fine. No big deal. Not like when I had a series 2 disco and it had mechanical problems always (although that was one of my favorite cars). Enjoy the sport !
