Posted on July 15, 2020
The F-150 Raptor is one of many models in the F-150 lineup for 2020 but is one of our favourites here at Bennett Dunlop Ford. This off-road ready pickup begs to be taken out to test its limits and bring you an experience like no other. We've gathered the top 5 reasons to buy a 2020 F-150 Raptor and shared them below to give you all you need to know before you start planning your next off-road adventure.
1. More Bang for Your Buck
To say the Raptor is good on gas is an understatement. With an estimated 15.3 L/100 km city and 13.1 L/100 km highway, you won't have to stop and fill up multiple jerry cans "just in case" before you head out. Go ahead, see where that trail leads, your Raptor is good to go.
2. Tackle Any Terrain
Your Raptor comes with the Terrain Management System to ensure you'll always be prepared no matter what conditions you encounter. Select your drive mode from seven choices including Normal, Sport, Slippery, Tow/Haul, Deep Snow/Sand, Baja, and Rock Crawl, and hit the road without worrying about how to get out.
3. Two Words: FOX Shocks
The Raptor comes fitted with class-exclusive FOX live valve monotube shocks featuring internal bypass technology for superior control to maximize your experience and keep you comfortable no matter how bumpy the road gets. They'll also automatically adjust to the conditions as they change thanks to an electronic solenoid valve that provides continuously variable compression dampening.
4. Power at Your Fingertips
When you want incredible power to take on the toughest terrain or haul your ATV trailer to your favourite off-road spot, trust the Raptor with its High-Output 3.5 L V6 EcoBoost engine. This incredible piece of machinery boasts 450 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 510 lb/ft of torque at 3500 rpm. It's paired with an electronic 10-speed transmission with Tow/Haul mode and Auto Start/Stop engine technology.
5. The Raptor has Your Back
Just in case you were feeling intimidated by this powerful pickup, we wanted to let you know that it comes with a host of advanced driver assists to help keep you confident and in control behind the wheel. These assists include Trailer Sway Control, AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control, Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, BSIS with Cross-Traffic Alert and Trailer Coverage, and more.
