The Ford F-150 Raptor is a curious beast. It’s the class leader of the desert-running truck segment that can also destroy when it comes to rock crawling – meaning it’s the leader in a class of one. Some people like to think that Chevy’s Silverado 1500 ZR2 or the RAM TRX are competitors, but they simply are not. The ZR2 comes closest as a highly competent off-roader, but you wouldn’t dare try and keep up in an off-road race across the desert. The TRX, well, that’s Dodge shoving a Hellcat engine in a truck in the name of catching up, and when hooning across a desert landscape, the suspension will have you backing off the throttle while the Raptor pushes on.
