Question for Raptor Owners

I have been looking at Raptors for a little bit and have come to a crossroads. My uncle who is in the car business told me to not buy the 3.5L V6 unless they give you a Ford lifetime warranty but instead go with the 5.2L V8. When I went to the Ford Dealership and asked about this they told me straight up the 5.2 Supercharged V8 is 32k more, basically the Raptor R. Do most of you guys have the 3.5 or 5.2? What are your thoughts on each? Would be an everyday truck but also used off road occasionally.

“Even in the car industry, Uncle still doesn’t know anything.”

The 3.5 is what nearly all (99.9%) of the owners in this group have. The drivetrain has been around for a while and is generally dependable.

His uncle tryna up sale him a raptor R LOL

Just to clarify your post, the supercharged 5.2 is specific to the Raptor R. The “regular Raptor” only comes with the 3.5.
