For the tug-of-war segment, it seemed the Raptor R didn’t even fight, as the TRX easily won all rounds. This type of test requires a good amount of torque (and grip), and the TRX’s class-leading 650 lb-ft of torque pulled the life out of the Raptor R.
The F-150 may be several hundred pounds lighter than the 1500, but weight doesn’t matter as much on standstill pulls. Where it would matter more is on a quarter-mile drag strip, which happens to be the next part of the battle.
The Raptor R finished ahead of the TRX with a 12.5-second time at 108 mph, with the latter finishing in 15.5 seconds at 88 mph.
