The legend of the Baja sand has created icons of the off-roading community. The upgraded new third-generation 2021 F‑150 Raptor is coming and will turn heads. Gresham Ford provides the no-hassle transparent pricing experience that makes your car-buying process a positive.
What has changed in the 2021 Ford Raptor?
So glad you asked. It sports a all new exterior and all new interior for the 2021 model year. Off-road enthusiasts will appreciate the new five link suspension that is replacing the prior leaf springs. This upgrade improves the balance of payload and towing performance with the off-road capability that Raptor is known. The Raptor will never again be criticized for being a one-trick pony.
Increased Towing and Payload Capabilities
The conventional trailer towing rating has increased 200 lbs for a total of 8,200 lbs when properly equipped. When you need to utilize the bed, the Raptor also has increased payload another 200 lbs for a total of up to 1,400 pounds when properly equipped. Please feel free to reach out to a Gresham Ford Product Specialist with any questions about the capabilities or limitations of any of our Ford vehicles.
You definitely do not want to be the person who purchases a RV or travel trailer only to discover that now you need a new truck to handle all that weight. Our dedicated team of professionals is certified by Ford Motor Company to answer those questions correctly and completely.
Improved Suspension Travel
Like we said before the new 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor has been upgraded to provide a better balance of performance for a variety of tasks. One piece of the equipment that is making this a reality is the Terrain Management System and Trail Control functionality lead by the off-road ready shocks from Fox.
What is included in the Raptor 37 Performance Package?
The popularity of the F-150 Raptor means that if you want one, your best beat is to order it from a dealership. The advantage is that custom ordering provides you with the flexibility to include packages you really want to have included. Here is a list of the items included in the Raptor 37 Performance Package. It’s a great value ordering this directly from the factory. Upgrading to this equipment later would cost you much more money and a lot of time to boot.
- 17″ beadlock capable wheels unique to the Raptor 37 Performance Package
- 37″ BFGoodrich T/A K)2 all-terrian tires
- Sport Tuned Fox Shocks with Live Valve Technology
- 13.1″ ground clearance
- Approach Angle of 33.1 degrees

- Code Orange contrast stitching
- Low gloss black tint carbon fiber accents on the interior
What is included in the Tow Tech Package?
Towing can be a chore if you don’t have the right equipment especially when driving with a trailer is not your everyday job. For those of us who only pull trailers on the weekends technology upgrades can make all the difference. The Tow Tech Package on the F-150 Raptor has done a great job of bundling equipment at a savings.
- Pro Trailer Backup Assist with Pro Trailer Hitch Assist
- 360-Degree Camera with Trail Views
- Trailer Reverse Guidance
- Trailer Brake Controller
