2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor

Daddy Wants!!!

Well SVO and I got a hands on look at the new Raptor today. What an awesome truck. But no way am I going in debt for a vehicle again. So, since I don't think $45,000 will drop in my lap anytime soon, I will just have to drool from a far. BTW, I just paid off my Limited last Friday, so I can start saving now. LOL.

Let the drooling begin!



















Damn these seats are comfy!

Wow! Cant wait to see one of these in person. Rear selectable locker, $8 k fox racing shocks in all 4 corners, 35" BF's, Stock front skid, off road mode, Acc switches for ext lighting, 400 HP+400 ft lbs torq.........sweet!

Giggity, I had the chance to see one at of all places Husker Harvest Days! (I guess farmers need toys too!) They are awesome! Hopefully the big engineering job pays off!

I like it but i dont

Looks like JDM is getting with the program, and putting Saleen Series VI Supercharger kits which will run about 7-8 psi boost and create approximatley 450 HP at the engine, and as you well know, there is always more room to go faster and harder

Ok so 111 mph. I don't think going to 120 mph like that would be much of a problem for those tires as long as you slowed back down to a reasonable speed quickly. I don't really see any place where a truck like that would have to hit 120, even at the race track it would probably trap well under 100mph.

And why do we care? Isn't the 6.0 it's getting supposed to put down similar numbers in stock form?

6.2, and I don't think it's going to be all that and a box of Cracker Jacks IMO.
