Well....

I drove it up the street and back...I absolutely HATE the 2015+ Ford F-150 standard mirrors. They're the same size as the previous generation, however instead of being shorter and wider...they are taller and the width is quite a bit less. It makes it impossible to see anything.

That's the reason I always put the tow mirrors on my 2015+.




Shade under $70k. $69,060.

You made it sound like a sunday cruise lol. How hard did you drive it?

A Sunday cruise up a dirt road with some high speed sand washes and whoops?

Nope. If it were mine I would've, but it's already paid for.

Great looking truck!!
Not too crazy about the Supercrew, but still really nice.
That's the same interior I want. The same wheels as well. Those are the upgraded optioned wheels. I don't like the rear applique on the rear tailgate. I would be doing a rear delete on that. Looks waaaayyyyy cleaner and nicer in my opinion. Still says Raptor and F150 on the tailgate.

Is it me or is the truck sitting lower than the last gen raptors?

I'm not sure about ground clearance, but it does have more usable suspension travel. Its a true long travel suspension compared to the prior mid-length, so it may be sitting further down in the stroke.

It's just you. It makes it hard to tell though since my F-250 is rather tall.

True.
I think the rear has 14" of travel and the front allows for 13" of travel.

Sweet, Nick! If you're going to own a truck, that would fit the bill nicely. I'd love to hear how it sounds.

I'll try to do a decent soundclip tomorrow.

100% agree. The new mirrors are the same size as your 2012, however they run long-ways vertical, instead of horizontal. It makes it much more difficult to see.



I like them too, they just look really small compared to the tire.

I think everyone is just used to seeing large wheels and low profile tires on trucks now. The Raptor combo is a pretty classic setup.

And much more functional

big wheels and low profile tires= fail offroad. Would also take me less than 5min to smash those stupid tail pipes

That's what I said earlier. That change doesn't make sense for a purpose built off-road truck.

95% of future owners will not take them to their limit.

Oh, I know. The same holds true with most sports/specialty vehicles.

I'm just curious why they changed it.
