[@1CrazyDudeYo]

I can speak for others when I say TFL is a great channel bcz everyone is so genuine and relatable. Real auto enthusiasts doing a great job! Keep it going, Tommy and TFL team

[@mxerb5912]

Six figure trucks are becoming not relatable

[@joncorra7811]

I’d gladly pay $45,000 for a new Raptor today.

[@sapperROSS]

🤣 sadly that only gets you a higher end midsized truck now. Gotta love the us lol

[@byungs]

$45k adjusted for inflation is $62k. even the $55k that they paid is $75k. this new one is $110k. insane.

[@Dale37]

I remember passing on a brand new crew cab F150 XLT 4x4 the dealer wanted $38k for. If only I could get that same truck for that price today.

[@andrewb325]

I can hardly believe that price. I bet you could even get a factory incentive back then.

[@deejayimm]

@@byungs inflation is only half the story. Inflation does not account for increase in wages, or the lack thereof. When wages stagnate, the adjusted for inflation price doesn't reflect the actual impact on the consumer.

[@SunnynPhilly]

Congratulations on the new Raptor R!!! I like how you did the cutaways to the old clips of the test drive of the original raptor and taking delivery of your blue raptor back in 14’.

[@Lexman00]

Jesus... Imagine a regular person spending 109k on a truck. Moreover, it's insane how this new Raptor doubled in priced from the first gen raptor. I'm happy for your guys, TFL. Ya'll do great work, looking forward to your Raptor videos.

[@davidgrisco1939]

Chevy guy here... excellent choice. Txs for all your videos over the years. Can't wait for you to get a new Chevy small block once it's available.

[@gqami]

$55k in 2013, to $109k in 2023, while materials may have changed, and drivetrain, but it's not worth the 50k+ in costs, especially when it's part of a large manufacturing process. Great video guys. You guys are making a ton of dough to get these nice rides. Congrats!

[@jonm7888]

They charge what they can get. Supply+Demand

[@NWI_Steel]

$45k in 2010 is the equivalent of $62k today. Absolutely nuts the inflation on these vehicles

[@SteveLord]

It also has a lot more tech and power. There’s a price to that. Which may or may not be $100k+.

[@RossMalagarie]

Do you think truck prices have increased much? In the 2010 video in this video it says the 2010 Ford Raptor R was about $45,000. Now a mid optioned 2023 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss is the same price. A mid trim, mid optioned, mid sized truck is the same price as the top of the line full sized top tier Raptor back 13yrs ago. DANG !

[@ThePr8head]

Thank you ALL for one of the AWESOMEST CHANNELS ON KZbin!!!!!

[@milkman1026]

2:25 I appreciate you guys working with Ronald McDonald house! When both of my daughters were born and in the NICU the hospital offered the chance to get in to the organization. We declined because we didn’t really NEED it with the ability to stay at hotels or friends houses and whatnot, and just told them we’ll let the next person who really needs it have it. Looking forward to some fun Raptor R content from you fellers in the future!

[@MZ-bl6wg]

You got a Raptor R for STICKER!??? From a Ford Dealer!???? WOW!!!! I spent time in Brighton back in the late 90’s, hats off to this dealer!

[@scottkeeney1]

I can’t believe the bed liner isn’t standard. Nice looking truck tho.

[@LambrettaJet200]

I like to know how the Bronco does in long term mileage like 250,000 miles to 400,000 miles. Also reliability up to around 250,000 miles or more. Not just the short term part but they have not been out that long to see how they do in long term mileage. I guess I will have to wait and see how Bronco last.

[@Tallnerdyguy]

Big reason I didn't get one yet

[@keithmorrison9372]

Raptor R vs Hummer, Tug of war Drag race Towing distance on a tank of gas vs full.charge.

[@marcelpala3421]

I remember watching that video of you guys getting the blue raptor! I was only 14 lol. Really happy for you guys getting the raptor r!

[@drewelliott9062]

Coolest truck on the market. Congrats!

[@Shahabbi]

You guys are awesome! I remember I started watching the channel when I was in 3th grade (2011). When it was only Nathan and Roman, and Andre was the comedic "Russian Mechanic". I would always watch your videos after school, especially the iconic videos like the blue Raptor or the Hellcat and the Ford Escape misadventure. Over years I have grown up with the channel just like Tommy and to see the channel grow so much it pretty awesome! Again, you guys are amazing and keep up the awesome work and congrats on the new truck!!!

[@Stuka87]

Congrats guys! I actually remember watching that original Raptor video. You all have come a really long way!

[@mikeszwec9551]

I’m probably the only one who isn’t excited about the Raptor R, but still love the TFL

[@russm6759]

Congrats. I started watching the channel when we bought our Gen 1 Raptor and lived on the east coast in 2014. Still have that truck and picked up our 2022 Gen 3 37 in Oct living here in CO now. I need to catch you at an event sometime and say hello. Always enjoy your content and real world perspective!

[@Davido50]

The very limited vendor issues w/valves was contained extremely fast . FORD took amazing care of small group of affected individuals. No worries since that period of time the Gen 2 - 2.3L & 2.7L V6 TGDI are proven & excellent. My '22 Bronco Sasquach has been impeccable & worth $60k.

[@gregsawyers8148]

Those miles could be from storage! Waiting on a chip... Ky Truck plt stores them a the old Nascar track in Sparta, Ky. Approximately 40 miles from plt... sure other plants are storing them also.

[@trevorhart5576]

I wish you all did a recon video where you spied on the truck from the manufacturing line to the dealer then to you to see how it accumulated 39 miles. Now that would be must see TV.

[@br23goose]

I enjoyed the reminiscing more than the truck itself. Congratulations, what a truck! Looking forward to all Raptor R content.

[@simon-pierremichel2035]

I have the same age as you Tommy and I was one of your first viewers also😁 I saw all of your videos when I was a teen🙈 I remember I couldn't wait to get back home from school for a new video every day back in the time!!! You guys give me so much knowledge about cars🚗 Plus you guys help me with my english (cos my main language is french) It's actually the first time that I comment one of your videos, I hope I didn't do to much mistakes 🙊 So I'm the one thanking you guys for all the sacrifices and energy that you put on all of your videos so I could get some good content❤ Today being an adult I don't have as much free time to watch all of your videos. But I'm still supporting you guys and a loyal fallower all the way from 🇨🇦 🎊Congrats for the TFL new RaptoR🎉

[@ripfletching]

We want daily videos of this truck!!!!! For the next 2 years

[@birdiebros2206]

THE FORD RAPTOR R IS KING!! So glad to see you guys get your hands on an R! Can’t wait to see all the cool stuff you do with it! 👊👊🤠🤠🐐

[@JasonBoydston]

I remember back when Andre only spoke Russian. This channel has come a long way since then. This is the best Automotive group of channels on KZbin!

[@lanceripplinger8352]

I remember the blue Raptor. Can't believe it has been that long ago! TFL is king! 😀😀

[@cameronj9890]

I want to see if tow/haul, and of course, let’s see some challenging trails! Nice truck guys, I’ve been watching your channel before the first Raptor you owned. Cool to see you guys grow.

[@MTU5oh]

The standard Raptor should absolutely have had a 5.0L option from Gen2 onward. I don’t know if we have the government or Ford or whomever to blame but it’s sucks that wasn’t offered. Gen3 Raptor R is awesome but unobtainable for the vast majority of truck owners.

[@dor1tomcswagger69]

No heated steering is a joke in a 110k vehicle 😂 congrats though it's a great looking truck

[@Hellrorin]

Nice Raptor R, and I hope to see how does off road comparison to the Bronco. On a side note, since you did not sell the Bronco, did RMDH get any donations? Since you got the vehicle for that reason. Also, TFL has always been open and up-front with cost and everything. What was the trade in value of the Bronco? Did you get the 69k or over that. But looking forward to seeing Raptor content.

[@JesseMcDMusic]

Congrats guys! Well deserved! Now lets see this thing in MOAB!

[@spizike9866]

Why? This will do nothing in Moab the 37PP won’t do. This needs the open desert to stretch its legs.

[@TristenHernandez]

The original was 45 grand I don’t even think you can get a ranger for that price crazy how things have gone everything is close to double what it used to be just a couple years ago and yet there’s still some that are doubting inflation?

[@lunamaria1048]

Omg yes! I look forward to seeing how it performs!

[@glaffoon1]

I thought the Bronco was going to be sold on TFLbids. ???? But, what the hill? $110,000 for a ford? We’ll see why fails first. I’m just not a ford guy.

[@gregp.7148]

You guys should've at least donated $500 or $1000 to Ronald McDonlad House. Without that RMHC person giving you his reservation, who knows how long it would've been before you would've gotten your brand new Bronco. Let alone in this yellow color.

[@willie31133]

I would’ve questioned the 39 miles at delivery as well. Especially since you ordered it and it shouldn’t have been used for test drives or anything like that. Someone for sure went on a joyride before handing you the keys and who knows what kind of shit they did with it.

[@tlr-nut7275]

I deliver these for a living from the factory in Dearborn. They can get driven alot from one storage yard to another. The people that move them yard to yard are sometimes temp-agency workers. I see them race each other all the time. Two days ago, one of these yard shunters did a massive breaktorque burnout with a Hellcat Challenger at the Riverview yard in Detroit near me. I was afraid I'd get blame because of the massive tire smoke cloud. No one seemed to care.

[@ethanschultz4234]

That road noise is deafening in that thing on the highway! 1:26

[@kingshawn1857]

Y'all deserved this man it shows hard work and dedication pays off we appreciate the content you guys give #1 channel👍👍

[@ostromadventures]

Wow what a truck! 700hp Can’t wait to see videos on this. Now you can’t even get a regular 4wd truck for $40-$45k let alone a Raptor.

[@WW-wf8tu]

Instead of telling you what to do with it, how about what NOT to do with it? I hope this does not turn into another "over lander"/topper" truck. This factory built rig with a bed liner should be all the changes it gets. No lift, no bigger tires, none of that. For once, let it be what it was designed to be. That is my 2 cents. Take it out to the sands and blast away. All the rest of the "tests" and drives you already do is plenty.

[@Ichibuns]

Shouldn't off-roaders be able to turn off ABS? Don't they stop faster on dirt without ABS?

[@warwombat_]

Not a fan of this class of trucks, but it’s pretty sweet to see they are adding super charged v8s to these trucks. Will look back in history and smile in these days lol

[@JOHNJ0HN9111]

We have sold the raptor R and the bronco R last year as they were pre-ordered to our dealership.. we have a raptor 37 someone bought and returned.. head to head with a raptor R and a f150 roush truck.. id love to see that guys.. I work at the number one roush dealership in ohio..

[@-zerocool-]

You know you bought a good truck when you dont even say goodbye to the last one lol

[@keithkiggins2531]

Awesome! I bought an Expedition from Mark last April!

[@ben0jamin]

Congrats guys but just know I am super jelly lol. Look forward to more content with the raptor r.

[@iral2002]

Long life to TFL.

[@davidmerrell1163]

Can't believe they delivered a brand new 110k vehicle to you with the fluid splatter all over the valve covers (5:24) I would want to know what the hell that is before I take the keys.

[@Captain-Awesome]

Congratulations 🍾 TFL! We need to know what you think about the TRX in Comparison.

[@carllovullo6602]

Sad to see that Bronco leaving but happy to see that Raptor R!

[@charlienevergold3654]

How does it get 39.2 miles on the clock? Does Ford do some pre delivery testing or is this everyone at the dealer getting a turn going for a spin?

[@jakey20022]

JEEP. 392 Wrangler would have been awesome 👍👍

[@thinde88]

I’d really like Andre to go into more detail and testing on the new transfer cases in these trucks. More trucks are coming with 4 auto mode, relying on clutches to send power that have been reported to overheat off road. At what point do they give up? As a 2020 F150 owner I’m worried this will hamper me off road eventually. The Raptor has the unique ability (along with properly optioned Tremor) to also mechanically lock into 4WD. Test it!

[@randysrestoration]

Best 🎉 Purchase TFL has ever made! I have exact same spec R on order!

[@ruggedindsoup2135]

Very cool truck. But prices have gotten ludicrous. They’ve gone to plaid.

[@Davido50]

Congrats ! You guys couldn't have gotten a better "pure off rd" high- performance truck..as ya said its the Ferrari of trucks! Or the Ford GT of trucks maybe !? 🤔 😀 😃 💯👍🏻👍🏻

[@ivankuljis1780]

@9:52 10 mpg !!! NOICE ( Green Credentials )

[@larrygreca-ny1qf]

Tommy didn't get to drive it home! Lol

[@Gonzo1968]

110k doesn't even get you a bedliner anymore, dayum! Sweet truck though..

[@djisar-official]

Moonswatch seems fitting for Tommy lol -- 39 miles for a brand new vehicle is a bit odd?

[@shitloveaduck]

I would be a little pissed off seeing it had 39 miles especially if it was special order. I would definitely spec that the vehicle would have to have less than 10 miles on it, I know that’s easily done. Then I would be dropping the price $1000 for every mile over that. The dealer said the truck arrived on Friday and said they couldn’t find some number. I suspect the truck made it to the dealer owners home for the weekend first!! Hahaha. That dealership is treating them well otherwise, so no big deal, but as a ordinary client, I would be truly annoyed!! Before I left, they would be making concessions. The Baja mode on the truck is definitely illegal in many areas. If you are in an industrial area ok maybe, but even out on the open highway in open prairie like they have there, a house 2 miles off the highway will hear that truck, not unlike the open pipe bikes etc. it’s surprising and annoying at the same time. I have a slight bias as I am a retired LEO and am bothered by people that don’t care. Roman likes vehicles truly loud (Jaguar convertible for example). I hope he is respectful in residential areas. (It’s amazing, the amount of noise complaints that come in from the public regarding excessive noise from vehicles, exhausts and stereos.

[@snomass1]

The dealer probably floored it lol

[@Mach141]

$109k...Totally insane. I would cry when it got the first paint chip or scratch. That sticker on the bed sides is hideous.

[@jasonpaiva4793]

🔥Sweet . Off-road drag races 🏁

[@KoTBauN]

Congratulations!

[@s3bbybas3dr3x]

i lowkey hate this channel but i get it. C.O.E. content over everything.

[@mmateri]

don't get the bedliner, the truck is worth more. that paint was never scratched

[@who0icu812]

Lucky on your bronco

[@kblue4506]

In CA I saw online a 2023 raptor for $211k.

[@Andreshponton]

What happened to the bronco online auction ?

[@rickstrawbridge892]

Did Ford ever resolve the noisy roof?

[@natep1661]

I would like to see it replicate the evil Knievel snake river canyon jump in Idaho.

[@Philballer17]

compare it vs the 2016 lifted rubicon offroad

[@skimask5049]

love how the dealer says is this you guys? just hands the key away LOLLLLLL like ok

[@superset5]

that was a detail guy

[@timothywest1183]

Nice. Subbing from Castle Rock.

[@CarlosCeballos56]

For a moment I thought you've bought a G wagon. I'm still positive about that, but great purchase

[@terryduncan31]

Ford knows how to build a good truck? They've had more recalls than anyone over the past year or so, lol.

[@aynsleyjeansonne]

Can it jump Grand Canyon? Great video idea

[@WickedCobraMTG]

Awesome truck! Raptor R vs Hummer Ev at sea level would be interesting!

[@Sourman1545]

Take away 90% of those creature comforts and id think about it, all i need is tilt wheel ac and a radio. nothing else

[@jond4328]

A Ford Raptor or not, its a Ford and I have put a 80k Ford Expedition up against a Genesis GV80's interior and that is NOT LUXURY inside a Ford! Maybe compared to back then it seems LUXURY, but still Ford is far from having LUXURY interior. They maybe the worst at putting loads of SUPER CHEAP plastic throughout the cabin. Oh and forgot to mention that GV80 was little more than 10k cheaper. Superior technology, superior ride Quality, superior performance, superior materials, way more quiet cabin. So paying over 100k for a Raptor your paying for that engine and off road capabilities, as for LUXURY, I don't think so

[@samjohnson9894]

Most expensive hood struts I've ever seen. Ford couldn't bother with them for $65k. Glad to know $110k nails them down.

[@tw8644]

Suggestions….sue every dealer that sells one over Msrp. Shut them down. It’s a raptor with the motor it should’ve started with. But now they do this so they can con buyers. .

[@Hayden_gearheart]

Congrats on the new truck can’t wait to see this truck put to the rest you guys got it for steal I’m seeing raptor r’s go for 200k

[@MrJamesLuz]

Roman back in a Raptor! Nice!

[@MegaCrashfistfight]

Ford engineers need taken to task over blinding headlights.

[@brohammer]

I’ve never been as uninterested in a vehicle as this one from TFL. It’s like the ultimate rich / wasteful truck ever. I like the coverage of every-man trucks much better. IMHO …

[@oscarmayer9823]

39 miles on the new raptor? Someone was out having fun. Maybe the guy handing off the keys was guilty. Lol.

[@stevenhugley4025]

The first TFL video I ever watched was of the blue raptor and how the torsion locking front diff worked. Congrats guys.

[@mvcharisma]

You should compare the difference between this, the highest spec F150 vs a base F150 with the 3.3 doing all your normal tests. Towing, off road, fuel economy etc.

[@jamescharles8663]

Wow 🤯 Congratulations on the new Raptor R!!! Excited to view all the content y’all will provide. Way to go gentlemen.

[@TFLtruck]

Thank you for the support, James!

[@maxattacks25]

The amount of DISCIPLINE you need to not floor your raptor R during the break-in period must be astounding. Not sure I could resist either haha

[@jonjennings5533]

Pretty sure they were supposed to sell that bronco on TFL bids. They must have not gotten a good offer.

[@BullittKid08]

They probably got a good trade in offee

[@andrewsbbq]

They should try and work out a partnership with Doug Demuro's Cars and Bids, I saw his auction platform just got an acquired majority for a cool $37 million

[@mxerb5912]

Proceeds were supposed to go to charity too 😂

[@kevinblock2307]

It was on TFL bids but didn’t get to the reserve price..I’m sure they got more trading it in. Can’t blame them and it’s a win for us because we get to see videos on a Raptor now.

[@omardevonlittle3817]

What control do they have over the reserve being reached? Shhhh

[@ripfletching]

Man we love watching Tommy grow up!!! Great KZbinr

[@patrickirish8110]

Watching you all enjoy the you-know-what out of this truck is going to be awesome! Solid purchase, gents! I have to add that the flashbacks to 2010 and 2013 reminded me just how long I've been watching your vids. It's been great seeing how TFL has evolved over the years, and I wonder just how much bigger it'll be in another ten years.

[@OP941nine]

TFL bids left the chat🤣🤣🤣

[@kyleheckman361]

Congratulations on all of the success!! Great people deserve great things, keep it up!
