The Gen 1 is definitely a classic, especially in Scab configuration, best for Dessert running. The new Raptor R doesn't come in Scab configuration which is disappointing. 6.2L Boss engine is best in performance and sound....Enjoy...

A couple of corrections to your video: Gen 2's started in 2017, not 2015 The shocks are not the same. Fox shocks, yes but the Gen 2's have a 3.0 instead of the 2.5 in the Gen 1's. Lots of Gen 1 owners are making a conversion to the 3.0s. Width is almost identical, where you said the Gen 1's are more. It's a 0.2 inch difference (Gen 1 is 86.5, Gen 2 86.3) That being said, get yourself a Gen 1. It's the original and if you have the means, save it for when the prices spike and they become the must-have classic truck.

I love my 2014 raptor but the only problem I have with it is the dreaded clunk coming from the front shock area. Everything is tight so I'm thinking it's the fox shocks, in the cold weather I also get the noise in the rear. Anyone else get the same noise? They were already rebuilt

Get new lower control arms and an aftermarket alignment and cam kit (makes HUGE alignment improvement). In the rear what solved it for me was upgrading to icon leaf spring kit. Now slowly doing the entire icon stage 4 build out.

I think if you want to be under 100k miles, high 30's is realistic. if you are above 100k miles, but still in nice shape, I'd go closer to the 34k to 36k
