The Fast Lane Truck why is Chevy still relying on the limited slip g80 it's time for a upgrade

The Fast Lane Truck How asks about MPGs on trucks like these!? 🤔🤨🤣

At 22:00 you can see the side step of the rebel take a huge impact from the slick rock. It looks like it got bent slightly. I loved this review it was super informative and well cut and put together. You guys did really good! I don't think I would pay the extra for the raptor. I love that Rebel a lot! I think I could spend a bit of that 15k on a lift, tires, and front locker and it would crush all these comparisons.

One thing y'all should compare is headlights since all 3 now offer led. I'm kinda curious which one would be the best for driving in the mountains or anywhere when it is pitch black out

@@malifestro7596 I thought the same thing about the sidestep no mention of that. I think both of the sides took large impacts, but driver's side look worse. Also if you see the rebel on tailpipe crusher the left bumper was dragging on the drivers side. They only showed the side next to the tail pipe. I do admit the Rebel plowed for everyone else. Curious why you didn't show the Raptor tail section like you did with the Boss and Rebel. I actually thought the Trailboss was going to get the most damage. I just find it funny that the Raptor is last. I mean isn't it the most offload worthy. Instead they let the Boss and Rebel find the lines.

Victor Fraire the Raptor is a wonderful machine! I have a 2018 and love every bit of it!

Shoot. Save yourself the $75k and build an offroad truck yourself for $10k.

@@npsit1 Absolutely agree. The only thing I'd add is to add a SxS and call it $25K.

Victor Fraire 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 don’t cheat yourself....treat yourself, I always say....

A woman smart with money, that's worth more than the truck or house.

ROFL!

Good one 🤣

@snooop dawg ahah you said it best "experts" the quotations are key here

snooop dawg exactly

Ford

Top gear guys have better jobs. And Top Gear knows about off road, while these guys don't. If they did they wouldn't use halftons.

Best, most fair comment.

Nah, you are thinking of Air Force pilots

@@thomasbaker9830 most people don’t buy f250s or 2500s to off-road😂 they use them to haul.

Ikr

Rhal Hal Suzuki samurai FTW! It won’t run the speed limit, but it’ll get you places that no one can get to if you need pulled out. 😂😂😂

Yup ! I bought an old v8 grand cherokee for 500 bucks... things a savage haha

@@GreenEyeDemon d9 not ever get rid of that old square body vehicle. I moved away from northeast east tennessee in 1988. Two years later my dad sold his 1978 chevy silverado square body truck! He didn't tell me that he was doing so. I drove that thing to high school in 1981 and 1982. It was pained buckskin color with mahogany colored side panels. Damn I miss that truck.

I like the idea, truly. However, your true off-road vehicle should be one that you can’t trust not to break.

Yep my $350 1994 Ford F150 4x4 can vouch for that

Damn skippy

I've lived in Florida dang near my whole life. Never seen a rock before except on tv...lol bottomless mud and swamps and sugar sand is all we know

Same, live in Georgia. I'm not making a trip to Nevada just to go off-road

YES! All this offroad tests in the desert, lets off road in New England White Mountains

Yep. This is a jeep test, not an offroad test. Haha. A lot of the angle stuff is still applicable though.

steveorz85 he didnt get 15k of options i guess. Yes GM trucks are expensive and only wealthy people can buy them. But hey, it goes along with the quality it provides.

A lot of newer trucks, especially 3/4 and 1 tons have blank switches so you can easily wire accessories like lights, snow plows, winches, salt spreader, etc.

A good truck!

Things that are on the Luxury "High Country" Silverado are what's missing, for good reason. It's a Z71, not a High Country. Still $19k less than the Raptor...

THAT'S FOR ADDING ACCESSORIES SURPRISED AT HIS LACK OF KNOWLEDGE

Yeah😉, me too

I do 😂

I’m planning too 😊

I owned 2, a 2010 and a 2012 Raptor. Never took either rock climbing and got the 2012 stuck in snow going into the alley into my garage, needed pulled out which was super embarrassing in a truck worth half what my house was at the time. Had some normal F150's too, but I now own a Ranger.

If they are actual switches. Probably just blank plates where switches could go. Can only imagine what a switch would cost at the dealership. Even if they are switches, they are still blank. Do you write labels for them if you wire them up? I like having extras, but the blank faces would still trigger me.

exactly my thoughts too. somewhere so i can put my neon lights toggle lool jk clearly they're for hydraulics for when i get down with the homies and neon.

I’m a year late but well said!

@@johnterpack3940 Usually when you buy light kits they come with switches to put in there with covers that say what theyre for

Me too, man..me too..

Custom trim trail boss has same lift, shocks, tires. Has 5.3l afm with 6 spd vs this LT has 5.3l dfm with 8 spd. Custom is bare interior, minimum features.

ram would win ford would he close but chevy is just a shit truck all in all

Porkymans Chevy is the nicest looking one

Porkymans lmao when you play Fortnite and call something shit

Daniel Heller watch videos on the 2014 raptor if you wanna hear about the Torsen. That’s all people were talking about back then.

It doesn't lock

Not hating the raptor I like it. But at $78,000 USD. It better be in a class of its own.

It is in a class of it's own for sure

xlthumper, Yes, this particular Raptor is very pricey but Raptors can also be had for well under 70K.

I agree

What does the off road mode do ?

These guys look like vets, in the truck game. I’m sure it was engaged when rock crawling in Moab..

@@Zjk580 , There is a light you can see in the instrument cluster that shows when it’s engaged, and the light was not illuminated. This is shown at the 8:41 mark.

@@bigchief8017 he mentioned that he engaged it .

Agree, I check this channel constantly for more vids. Can't get enough. So well done.

Truth! Very enjoyable

Alan Otto Agreed. The TFL team is informative, likable, professional and skilled in the editing room. Really excellent channels.

I thought the little part at 25:52 was particularly nice to watch (and listen to).

TFL absolutely ROCKS! Great videos, great productions and nobody is more objective and informative than them. Gotta love TFL!!!

I agree!

I agree, I like Tommy's narrations.

Couldn't agree more. Getting better and better all the time. Keep it up Tommy, pleasure to listen to. 👍

I agree, I first thought he hadn't earned his stripes but he brings a quality and thoroughness that I appreciate.

We need more videos with his Jeep!

Where trucks???

I’m taking my 6 month old Raptor to Moab in July and leaving my RZR XP at home in TX.....

@@WillieFlo I just took my FX4 out there. We stuck to easier stuff but we still got it pretty dirty. It was 4 months old and only had 5K on it when we got there.

Dude, the first 2 weeks I had my Tacoma TRD Off-Road I took it to Wind Rock off road park here in TN and put it through the wringer.

Most folks want abuse these trucks but it's there if you need to abuse them

and plowing everything

Yep, 43 mins I'll never get back. Especially since I bought a '17 rebel used and I've never hut the pipe on anything, or plowed and I live up in snowy Wisconsin. Oh and I spent more than half the cost of new.

I am a Chevy fan but I know we’re your coming from

I get tired of seeing all of theses off road tests ( not just TFL) being done in rocks and sand in the desert. Much of the country does their off roading on logging roads through forests. We encounter mud, clay, swamps, sand, rocks, mud slicked hills, streams etc. It would be nice to see people test off road vehicles when the frost is coming out of the ground in the spring in the mid west. You'll see how capable your vehicle is then.

XD

Exactly. It was a enjoyable video,just wish they could do more apple vs. apple tests. Even the last section they chose different lines,so leaves you still wondering which was better.

My god, I have been reading comments for I don't know how long looking for someone else to mention the FX4 package.

@Jason Creech Even though I own a '14 Ram 1500, I'm a fan of the Tundra as well. From some of the reviews that I've seen, it does pretty good without the locker. But if you say that a locker is required for that kind of stuff, then I believe you.

@Jason Creech That you are correct sir.

​@Lucas Davenport You honestly think so? The Tundra does have the rep of being the most reliable truck in the US right now.. You do know that right?

One Nation Under God same here homie, the people who talk crap about it are broke haters, everything about those trucks are absolutely fantastic

The power wagon is the only real offroad ready truck you can buy from the factory.

I thought it was the Jeep Rubicon

@@Gator24 The Jeep isn't a 'truck.' The Power Wagon has all of the Rubicon features, but in a truck package. With Heavy duty axles......

My truck straight from the factory heavily used off roads better than any raptor will

Ya for units

Over priced

Overrated at best

Waaaaaaaay overpriced. Traded mine in, liked it, always thought it was kinda ugly though. Got the trail boss and with the extra money, put King shocks/stouter suspension and it COMPLETELY blows the raptor away, not even funny. To each their own though.

@@erod6468 ikr I mean including my financial situation, I have to wait 7 years to buy the first gen Raptor to be affordable but maybe one day I will buy the Raptor

People also get upset when they don't close down plants, then have to be bailed out by the government.

True but this could have been avoided so they will open a new plant in Mexico instead of building cars people feel are reliable and they like

You would have thought Ford borrowed millions of USA citizens tax dollars to revamp their line and have a truck that puts out 100hp more ,117 ft lbs more torque and gets 1 mpg less even tho its wider, heavier, and sits higher in the wind, with larger heavier tires. Nope it was GM and they still have the old pushrod 355hp, anemic by comparison engine and crappy interior and seats. God forbid if Ford wasn't here I would buy the Fiat myself it looks way more offroad and has better seats and interior than the mundane Chevy imho. Just need to do some major engine tuning and intake/exhaust package to try to help the milage.

Agreed 100% love the raptor

Yes it does,but it simply isn't good enough looking to shell out over 80k to buy one.

@@harolddenton603180K isn’t a common price i sold two at a dealership I work at for about 45k to 70k but you get what you pay for the 70k was a Shelby model

Stopped what exactly? Enjoying something? Worry! Doing your work? Worry!

Prime Autotainment your profile pic is in front of a super car, not a off-road truck

DIPPITY DOO DA that means nothing ...and it’s a Mazda6 lol

Prime Autotainment same

Kootz Walker-Ben oh oh oh marry Christmas?

Cost more and less reliable

@@Ckcdillpickle you own these truck to say facts or are you just pulling that out of your ass? Wait we know already

Well, its a dodge

Not that one. Only the v8 one is

They don't make a v8 version anymore and what do you mean they don't hold up in value with the 3.5L? The reintroduction of the raptor in 2017, comes only with a 3.5L and they haven't gone down in value at all.

@@SteelRhinoXpress you're on crack. My buddy bought a 3.5 boosted one brand new. Went to trade it in for a v8 version that was 2 years older with 4k miles. Had to pay 15k just to trade it for the 6.2 raptor

How am i on crack? go look at used 2017 models and tell me how much they lost their resale value. so in other words i'm guessing he traded his truck into one of those typical big car dealership and they low balled him on his trade in because they knew how much he wanted an older raptor with a v8? lol well gee there's his problem. Everyone with common knowledge knows that you get low balled with trades in from big car dealerships. He obv didn't do much looking around before trading it in, to get suckered into to paying 15k ontop of his trade in for a raptor that was 2 years older. So unless he had a decent amount of miles on his truck already and the raptor that was 2 years older had hardly any miles on it, then there should've been no reason why he had to pay that much for it ontop of his trade in. You're friend got played. I used to work for a big car dealership and i've seen all the tricks car salesmen use to do to sucker people into paying more for a car than it's actually worth on new and used cars.

Jacob King that was not a smart thing to do... trading a new one for a gas draining crap!? Dumb move.

Agreed.

It was the worst truck and only $2k cheaper than the ram lmao

@@donevy9784 ...the worst....that z71 would outperform either of those 2 offroad all day long.!!!

@@donevy9784 its the best price, best looking, and it beat out the ram in off road performance, so i would say definitely not the worst lol

They did......the Raptor blew it out of the water. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n9Sbapqft5mpnIk.html It was the Ram Runner.....Dodge gave up on it.

Ford sucks. Chevy is the king but Dodge has the best diesels. Ford the problem is circled

@@AD-eq4kn Ford just outsells both........that doesn't say anything at all

If you put the $15,000 extra that the raptor costs towards parts for the chevy or the ram they could be better off road than a stock raptor easily. Which is the same reason they don't compare the chevy or the ram to the ford at the end.

@@Ahw1231 it must be nice to be so optimistic

have fun breaking down

How’s that going so far?

@@cn2673 says who

It's a FIAT..

Alpha Bear I’m a long time Ram guy that finally had enough. Last two trucks were Rams. Combined I had a successful Law suit for a lemon, 16 recalls, near constant check engine lights, an engine replaced at 93k and a variety of headache problems. My mechanic finally told me...”you need to quit buying those Rams.”

Dakota Ortiz thats what she said..

21:25

What part of the truck was making that sound? I heard the brakes had issues on the 2019 rams.

@@anonymous_friend the breaks almoat all cars make that sound when hard on the breaks and going slow

WHAT

Yeah and that diff on the Silverado must be so annoying

The Rebel is the same recycled piece of junk. It’s hill decent control sounded so bad. Trailboss, all day.

Rebel for sure, that rear locker is nice not like the garbage limited slip in the Trail boss. The interior on the Rebel is nicer than both others even the 80k Raptor

@@wint_62 trail boss is the worst dibshit

Armando Pacheco-Soto dip-shit. The Ram that falls apart is worst & it looks the worst. Open your eyes, douche.

@@raframirez4948 lol right?

Well to be fair...those other car manufacturers still can't catch up. Raptor all the way baby

Yeah everyone already knows its better

Joseph Rodecker Na just don’t have them be so low behind the wheels. Side exhaust looks queer to duals out the back.

@@justinw.2376 I hear you! It's really a matter of opinion. But we can both agree that the low exhaust is stupid. Not just because of scraping, but also water fording which they touched on near the end.

Joseph Rodecker I mean if a guy were to buy any of these trucks to only do what was in the vid they would cut the exhaust so it didn’t hang low

My rear bumper is now messed up from dropping on it so many times. My exhaust exits right behind the rear tire, still in good shape. Totally agree with you.

@Mike Smithey If I had to choose between Chevy, Ford, Dodge, or Jeep, I'd pick a SXS because they walk all over all of them.

And still not compete with the raptor......FWIW, I own a power wagon.....its a 68 W200...but still a Power wagon and still a crew cab....

The power wagon is a big heavy clunky commercial truck that’s not very good fooling around like the raptor is, the power wagon is literally just a 2500 with a junky Hemi and a winch and some corny decals, the raptor is literally a competition trophy truck that can hit jumps lmao

Im sure they will......

Ford has rear locker as well. The raptor performance is the best nothing beats it. The 360 degree is a huge bonus and has the best interior and tech. The raptor is the best off road truck you can buy no questions asked.

RockyTop1911 : What year is your Raptor?

F150 Raptor: 2018

RockyTop1911 : Nice. Same here.

Just don't go alone man. Link up with a group or have at least one friend out there in case anything happens. Murphy's Law is amplified by 1000% when offroading so tiny mistakes can become massive in seconds. Don't let this deter you at all, it's a BLAST but be careful.

Bro same

Sounds like my girlfriends hair dryer lol it’s a cool looking truck but underneath the hood has too many issues for the price of that truck.

Mike Contoni Suprised Chevy didn’t come out with a Silverado ZR2

I bought a new 18 Silverado and I love it! I drove all full size trucks and thankfully, I could've bought anything I wanted. I liked the GM firepower and got a hell of a deal since the 19 bodystyle was coming out. My best friend bought a 19 Silverado 2 weeks after I got my 18 and he paid over 12k more for it and its the same as mine except, his the 8spd auto and mine has the 6spd. I love the look out over the hood on my 18. It reminds me of my dads 70 Chevelle SS!

I've blown up 3 fords... NEVER AGAIN! I don't care what they offer
