I may be a bit of a troll? AITA?

It is , that's why Ford builds the SUPER Raptor dually , tandem axle version. 40" of wheel travel , 40,000 lb payload , ( That's 4 grown men AND about 261 Coolers weighing 150 lbs. 12,500 H.P. and gets around 38 mpg.
But it is only available for sale in certain states.

You’re a better man than I am. I just can’t stop poking the bee hive. These guys are so pretentious that they preach I “don’t understand the “SUPERTRUCK”. They literally call it a SUPERTRUCK?!?? It’s amazing! I own the damn truck and its an awesome vehicle but you can’t use it as a truck! Looks amazing, drives like a fucking sports car but YOU CANT DO TRUCK STUFF with it!! That’s a problem bro?!?

0-60 in 4.3 Seconds..... 400lb payload. Ford is by no means first to the sports car in pickup clothes fashion world.

If you really want to get them going, mention how the new Raptor should have a V8. They come unglued.

Trade that pile in on a TRX. 1,400 lbs of payload!!!!!

 

[Squatch]

Standard order (Most non-GT) 800 pounds
GT with competition suspension option 1000 pounds (1/2 ton)
All Models with Trailer Towing Option 1200 pounds

Ya know what these specs are from? The '72-'79 Ranchero. I agree with the OP's original assessment of the Raptor's payload.

I am a Ford guy…I LOVE the syclones! I had a decent mustang back then and ran up on one at a stop light. At the time I didn’t know much about them but, he wanted to play. I got gapped out of the hole so bad I let out and started laughing at my slow ass.

They and the Typhoon were both flat out fast.... by just about any measure. I know someone who has a near mint one and it's still impressive.
