They dropped SVT from name because the SVT division no longer was involved. The aux switches are fot additional lights or other electrical options you add. The amber lights at the corners and grill are not controlled by the switches. They are DOT requirements due to the vehicle width.

I agree never get old, I got my 14 in May totally by accident my other truck had mechanical problems and I needed a truck the next day. The truck I went to buy wasn't available and there it was so they asked me what about that Raptor? I told them ok if the price is the same as the other truck I can probably make it work. One of the best times of Providence that's ever happened for me I completely love it, won't ever get rid of it now.

Awesome! I put on the Corsa Extreme cat back(Res. delete) & it is sooo loud. I even towed 3000 miles in it already and no problem(two 13 hour drives). Mpg is horrible but it’s not too bad of an issue for me. I kinda wish the dash had a better display but it was built in 2013 so what can i say. Lmk if you have any more questions!

I have a feeling these 1st gens V8 Raptors are going to be very desirable once the majority of the world ditches the V8 for smaller more powerful turbo V6's. I am on the fence between a 1st gen Raptor or a 5.7L V8 Tundra.
@DrivenCompanion
4 жыл бұрын
Have you driven both? They are two great but very different trucks. The Tundra would be the way to go if you want a work truck or an old-school (reliable) truck while the Raptor is super luxurious, fast and much more fun to drive (but may also cost more in the long-term).
@timpearson4040

I agree the other issue is the same as with any discontinued vehicle ( V8) they are dissappearing wrecks, high miles ect. The other thing in my mind is it is the first to offer all the "stuff" everyone added to there trucks, off of the show room floor. I think it's going to be the collector mustang, camaro of the truck world.

A loaded down 4x4 Tacoma or 4Runner doesn't get much better mpg than this. I had a 2017 Tacoma 4wd all rigged out for camping/overlanding and I got about 14mpg avg. so you might as well have a V8 and just deal with sucky mpg.
