    Nota bene: should have remarked that 50 years DDRs were Alfa Giulietta, Giulia, GTV, Duetto, other Spyder. Also put 250K+ miles on a Caddie Northstar lump w/o a problem. One set of plugs and wires @ 100K and to the end still won the $20 bill on the windshield. Love the 612 excepting the cheap bits: mirror, window switch disintegration.

    Thank you, I know I’m a bit all over with my cars I just love to have a mix of everything.
    I did just realize this is a 458 post(I have a Pista now but I LOVED my 458). Will get a speciale one day!
    As for why those 3 in particular - Raptor is my “work/snow” truck(from NY). I had a ‘14 cgt that I traded for my Urus, than realized I missed my cgt and decided to get the new one, so now I have both. I drive the Urus way more overall about 3/1 ratio. S550 bought new in 15, has like 20k miles only and luckily my dad loves it and has been driving it since I have to many cars(not complaining, very blessed, and love them all equally). Jk I love my Pista the most. Lol

    Thanks man! Raptor is just a beast, rocky ridge package is awesome. Fully painted bumpers, fenders, unlike many. Added exhaust, intake, power module, bunch of other goodies!

    Indeed I am!
    My MO is to not skimp on maintenance, fix what needs to be fixed, use quality gasoline, and then drive them until they have only sentimental value.

    Just bought "The Smurf " ('20 Tacoma SR5) for her DD duties to replace the Ridgeline.

    Wife still refuses to give up her Ridgeline!
    So, it enjoys a peaceful & well-deserved retirement, parked out back under a tree, used only for puttering around town.

    Well I live in TX, so trucks are a thing. And if you want a truck this is the one.

    Speed, everything is in the right place, can take to ranch or drive to dinner no worries, sit high, interior has huge room (without SUV), throw things in bed when needed, people get out of my way when I'm behind them, most comfortable truck I've owned, looks fantastic.

    You are a Tesla guy (by your posts)...you won't like Raptor. I won't ever be without one--after four I'm confident it's a staple moving forward.

    If you want a truck or even SUV--get the Raptor. In my neighborhood everyone who has an exotic has a Raptor as well. Perfect balance.

    YMMV.
