Living with the Raptor
Complaints were mainly excusable, given the Raptor's goals and intentions. Fuel consumption can exceed 20L / 100km when drivers choose to frequently send snorting shockwaves from the tailpipes-- though my average settled somewhere around 16.5 L / 100km.
Given the Raptor’s size and width, it’s not the easiest machine to manoeuvre in parking lots, either. Opting for the backup camera is a good idea, or you may accidentally wind up decapitating a Smart Fortwo with the rear bumper.
Ultimately, Raptor looks poised nicely to be a smash-hit with truck enthusiasts from all backgrounds. Simply put, nobody else currently offers anything like it. Of course, if Raptor proves successful, that will likely change.
Your own off-road go-kart starts at $48,299.
