Abstract

For now, the standard Raptor is the top-of-the-line off-road baddie from the F-150 family The Raptor was also the only F-150 Ford sent even though we invited the entire lineup - including the PowerBoost hybrid - as the refreshed trucks weren't available in time for last year's competition. PROS Plenty of power from carryover powertrain • Excellent off-road capability • Nicer cabin and tech CONS Difficult to distinguish from prior truck • Gets quite pricey with options • Feels like a stopgap No, no - relax. Our test truck's optional 37-inch tires only slowed this powertrain slightly: The Raptor cracked off 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, up from the previous model's 5.2 seconds, but that was a lighter SuperCab variant. We all agreed the new Nissan Frontier is a solid truck that is good at doing basic truck things, but there is nothing new or groundbreaking about how it does them. [Extracted from the article]
