    See the thing is I'm a ford guy my first truck was a ford and the only reason I got introduced to this crazy little place known as tacoma world was because the tacoma was WAY cheaper. My point here is that if someone handed me a raptor I would test it out to see if I like it and most likely I would Like it

    I don't know. The first time I went to Hollister I ran into a bunch of tacos and one Raptor. I asked them what trails they were doing and they said only the green and blue because the Raptor is too wide.
    On the other hand Id probably be blown away if I drove a Raptor. It's gotta be amazing compared to my over weight elderly 1st gen.

    I have a TRD because I can't afford a raptor lol.

    For those complaining of the raptors size, it was built as a prerunner. Not a mud truck, crawling truck, or trails truck...

    It's a prerunner.

    Of course our trucks will fair better in the tight stuff.

    However, that raptor already possesses stock what many of use try to upgrade to, even on the TRD... Which sadly comes with mediocre "bilsteins" and and locker... Pretty much the only thing that sets it apart from base model...and I cant even use the locker in 2wd or 4H... Lame!

    While the raptor is running a custom designed Fox racing/remote resevoir suspension.....

    There's a reason it costs more.

    I just want the game to be over so we can shift the focus to he upcoming baseball season. Only reason I'm watching the game is because I spent 2 years of my life building that place. Kinda cool to see some of the work I actually did on national tv.

    I don't think CA has ethanol free gas.

    But I could totally be wrong. There's websites that help you find ethanol free stations, try a Google search for something like "ethanol free gas" and add your zip code.
