Hello from STL

[the314boss]

Picked up my 2023 Cactus Grey on Monday; had been deliberating between the Bronco Raptor a new F-150 Raptor or the RaptorR. Something about this truck simply felt right to me and I have no regrets - she's a looker!

I came from a 2018 F-150 Raptor, so there are definitely some tradeoffs in power/acceleration, highway ride/glide and some interior creature comforts, but this is (pardon my pun) truly a horse of a different color as i relates to its suspension and technology in the off-road department.

Looking forward to seeing more content and conversations about these trucks and glad to be a part of a group that can share information and ideas. I sorted a lot of things on my own being a part of the F-150 forum; hope the same will be true of this community!


Cheers!

The cactus grey has easily become one of my favorite colors (on any vehicle). Not sure if it's because it a unique color and you don't see too many of them. Kia's Optima cactus grey makes that look like a high end luxury car every time I see one of those

Welcome aboard. Cactus Gray was my first choice, but I settled on Azure Gray cuz availability.
