    Agreed. I had a 2016 Rebel. Loved it, except...the damn air suspension. The 2nd gen Rebel’s now have it as an option. Will be interesting, for sure, to see the TRX. Rumors say it will have 707 HP with the Supercharged 6.2L Hemi. I’m interested to see what Ram does for the suspension, ultimately. They commissioned Dirt King to build the suspension for the concept. No way Dirt King can supply a production truck. That’s why I think Ram will 1) buy the rights to the suspension design and do it in house, or 2) completely dumb it down. Time will tell. Diggin the Raptor, BTW! Love those trucks!

    Haha yeah my pockets aren’t that deep either. They’re a decent value used, but I bought the Tacoma specifically because of the stick. Any rocket ship would be in addition

    I miss it on downshifts. But the raptor has manual mode and paddles if I want to have more control. Still not the same, but not bad, and cruising on the highway 65mph at 1800rpms in 10th gear is pretty nice.

    Idk, honestly my itemized list of things the taco did better right now is:

    1) wheel narrow forest trails
    2) park
    3) have a steel tailgate for my funny magnets

    Raptor really is a sweet truck. All cards on the table re price, truck was stickered at 54k and they gave me ~21k for the taco, so it isnt as tough to stomach as it could have been. Wouldnt have paid new price for one, but this was a good deal used and I ended up all said and done around the same price as a nicely optioned 3rd gen. Im pleased with how all of that shook out (obviously)
