The 22" wheels on that Limited do nothing for acceleration.

Mine accelerates very nicely.

They make a big difference. I can tell a serious difference between my dads with factory 17's and my 20's. Everything else on the trucks is identical.

I got my truck to tow and to look good, not to race, if your worried about half a second acceleration difference you got the wrong vehicle son, lol! The 24s on my 150 were sweet. 17s look like crap, lol! Anything smaller than 20s just look out of place in the huge wheel wells on these trucks.

That's why you put big meats on the 17's!

To me, anything larger than 20's without being dropped looks like *** especially when your truck is confused about what it wants to be.

I do not know to think about my stock 22s then. LoL.

Sure if you actually go mudding, but it looks gayer than a bag of dicks on a street Queen plus they are loud and annoying on the highway if you drive a lot, lol! I drive 25000 a year and my 20s are more than capable for anything I find offroad.

I live in Colorado and tow boats, snowmobiles, lumber, horses, and other crap up similar grade regularly. Like once or twice a week minimum. 7k+ altitude, 3-5% grade in Southern Colorado.

This vid makes me wanna jump off a bridge. Or execute a Ford executive w/ a 50 cal. One or the other.


I dropped 60 on a raptor, their top of the line truck. And they wouldn't let me get it in an ecoboost. So that means have about 30 % less towing ability at altitude than my friend who bought a 30k f150.

Thanks ford.

PS, all your fake concern about the environment is highlighted in the raptor as well. I have no idea how many raptors you sell but I assume a lot. All of us get 3-8 mpg less than we would get if we drove an ecoboost raptor...so all the phony mpg environmental love you pretend to show in other car models is nullified because the profit margin on the 6.2 is higher than eco so you don't give us an eco raptor.

Head to the Raptor forums Ford. 18/20 of us would pay more for an Ecoboost if it was an option, it would help the environment, help solidify the reputation of the ecoboost...and you don't care. Bc the margins are lower than the 6.2 (good friend fairly high up in ford confirmed this suspicion).
Shameful stuff, Ford.

I love everything about the Raptor but the engine. To be honest as a Raptor owner, I don't know if I can ever forgive Ford completely for smacking us customers in the mouth via engine option. I thought I could when I bought the truck since everything about it is so amazing.

But it's tough to swallow having such a drastically inferior engine..particularly at altitude where it officially SUCKS compared to eco in towing, speed, mpg, everything.

But at least 80 year old Raptor owners who grew up in a previous generation/can't accept new technology can appreciate the engine noise of a V8 w/ 1980's technology... *sigh*...

I am so confused by this post I can't even tell if its serious.
