We know were not perfect — as our loyal commenters frequently remind us — but when the first line of a Los Angeles Times pickup truck review about one of our favorite vehicles contains a sizable error, it makes it difficult to take the rest of the article seriously. And that's a shame, because aside from that glaring error — it's the F Series, not the F-150, that's Ford's best-seller — the rest of the review about the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor is pretty good.
We know we don't have a perfect record when it comes to getting all our pickup facts right, but we're comfortable putting our batting average up against anyone else's in this playing field.
As to the Raptor itself, we're not surprised that quite a few auto writers are impressed by its abilities. We love it as well.
Raptor Off Road
There's nothing else like it in its class, and we agree with the three top criticisms leveled by most auto writers — no diesel engine option, high price and poor fuel economy — but there needs to be context. When was the last you saw a high-speed Baja racer with a diesel? Specialty vehicles are expensive to produce, and twin turbos need a lot of fuel to spin. The single most important thing we learned during our 2017 Monster Factory Off-Road Challenge was that the Raptor is very good but not perfect. It's heavy, the payload is dismal, and it brakes like a pig.
