Price

The 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor starts at $78,480. However, you can find other F-150 models starting at just $35,680. With 11 F-150 trim levels, you can get the truck you deserve. The 2023 Jeep Gladiator costs $40,570 for the base model, with nothing added. Aside from the base trim, there are only eight others to pick from, none of which can compare with the F-150 Raptor.

Engine

The 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor has a 3.5L turbo EcoBoost V6 engine rated for 450 horsepower. A Raptor R model with a 700-horsepower 5.2L supercharged V8 comes from the Shelby GT500. Both of these are equipped with a ten-speed automatic transmission. If none of these suit you, the standard F-150 lineup offers many engine options for any need. The 2023 Jeep Gladiator includes a 285-horsepower 3.6L V6 engine, which pairs with either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic. Otherwise, you can opt for a diesel powertrain.
