    I don't even know where to begin with this article.

    "Exclusively designed, TRD’s Pro Desert Air Intake is fixed on the windshield extending out like an antenna. The filers collect the cool air from a height while blocking down the excess dirt in the dust line from getting into the engine."

    Look at this TUNDRA with no desert air intake!

    I dont get the point of this article.. they are 2 comletely different truck designs, for differing terrains. while the tacoma may be better suited as an all around vehicle the raptor is suited for high speed dunes, and baja type racing. the tacoma will excell in some aspects of rock crawling (with mods of course), while the raptor will just break stuff.. kind of a pointless article..

    I made it a few words into the article then quit. The author starts with something like “we all know ford makes immaculate trucks blah blah blah but Toyota is no slouch”


    Yeah no shit, new guy. Toyota has always made better trucks. Toyota has built a reputation on being better than ford.

    Raptors. Lol. It’s a monster energy drink on wheels, pretending to be something it’s not. It has HP, sure. But it’s still a regular production framed f150. So what.

    Haha what a ridiculous article. Such an odd pairing of vehicles to compare.

    This is the only person that would rate an auto maker higher than another just because of paint selection.
