    Wasnt sure where to go for advice. This is kind of off topic but I was interested in a Ford Raptor. Right now I have 2008 tacoma work truck and I love it. Id like to have another truck and the Raptor looks pretty clean, but is it a golden turd? If talking about other vehicles isnt aloud please let me know. After all it is Tacoma World.

    Please elaborate. This will be a large financial decision. Im looking to see how it holds up over time/high mileage. I live in WV and off-road is a must.

    Depends on your opinion of Ford quality....mine isn't very high. It's no Toyota.

    I owned a 2014 roush raptor, and drove the new ones and they both had insane build quality. I had literally no issues with mine and owned it for four years before selling to get a sports car. I can 10/10 reccomend.

    Thank you. Ive found a 19 model for 48k with 15,000 miles and from what ive seen that is a pretty good price. Ill mainly use the truck for weekend off-roading and a party truck. :D

    Welcome to TW! Raptors are cool, but they'd get eaten alive on the tight trails where I live.
