Welcome to The Smoking Tire, where the team is getting up close and personal with the Raptor R. Now, this beast of a truck is the epitome of subtlety, with its minimal exterior upgrades and clever badge design. But don't let that fool you, because under the hood lies a true powerhouse. The Raptor R boasts the Shelby GT500 engine, delivering a mind-blowing 700 horsepower and 640 lb-ft of torque. That's right, folks, this truck means business.

Now, some might argue that the Raptor R is just a rehash of its predecessors, but let me tell you, it's so much more. With its incredible speed, power, and overall performance, it's like the newer, better version of the Raptor we all know and love. And let's not forget about its weight advantage over the Ram TRX. The Raptor R is a whopping 700 pounds lighter, thanks in part to its carbon fiber components. It's like a lean, mean, off-roading machine.

Speaking of off-roading, this truck is an absolute beast when it comes to tackling the dirt. Equipped with Fox live valve shocks and impressive suspension geometry, it's built to handle jumps and rough terrain with ease. And let's not forget about its towing and hauling capabilities. This bad boy can carry up to 1,400 pounds in the bed and tow up to 8,700 pounds. It's a true workhorse.

Now, I know what you're thinking, all this power and performance must come with a hefty price tag. And you're right. The Raptor R will set you back a cool $112,000. But hey, can you really put a price on the thrill and excitement that this truck brings? I think not. So if you're in the market for a truck that's not only powerful but also a blast to drive, look no further than the Raptor R. It's a true beast on and off the road.
