Hey guys. New to the forum from Shreveport, La. Just picked up truck number 3 to add to the family and I am super proud of this one. My 2000 GMC SIerra 1500 SLT, 5.3l. I am the 2nd owner at 160K miles. The previous owner was an elderly man who passed recently and I was able to pick the truck up for $5500. Lots of mods and upgrades over the last month. Runs like a champ!

I almost bought yfz 450 iv driven both and they seem equal in power the warranty on the Raptor 700 is what made my decision. You got more pics of it.

The raptor is more of a trail quad, the yfz 450 is designed for the track. The yfz 450 is definitely quicker and the power band

between the two is much different.

I have had both and the yfz is much more fun to rip around on. I would say if you want to put around, get a raptor, if you want to rip around, go with the yfz for sure.

Them yfz with no doubt have low end buy they don't seem to have the top end like the Raptor I love ripping down the Highway passing cars giving the cops the bird and taking off the adrenaline rush is incredible. But at the end of the day they are both dam nice machines I just like the warranty on the Raptor the yfz has no warranty and I don't have a track around here to ride on unfortunately so I use old pallets and make my own jumps. If I had a track dam right it would of bin yfz 450 no questions asked.

    • I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY
    • I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
