A Tale of Two Raptors


2024 Ford F-150 SuperCrew Raptor R Review

Back in 2014, I had the chance to drive the first-generation Ford F-150 Raptor. That truck blew my mind. Ford had built something that could tear through the desert and still roll into the grocery store parking lot looking meaner than anything else around.

Fast forward to today, and the 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor R has taken everything great about the previous generations and improved upon them.

2024 Bronco Raptor 4-Door 4X4 Review
