Ford Raptor

[h2ofowlr]

I went and test drove a Ford Raptor today.  Does anyone else have one or have any pro's and con's to one other than price?

Don't have one, but done some research. Really can't think of why not. For me the price held me back, but I'm in love with it.
It's a factory baja set up truck. Nothing to hate, and nothing else on the market compares in my opinion.

It is a ford though.

I have an 06 f150 black/ everything blacked out and theres a raptor the same in town. Everytime I see him he tries to get me to race him . The thing sounds mean and scoots thats for sure, but soooo ugly

Wow!  A $50k + rig and jumping it like that.  Hope for good insurance.  Only problem is the gas tank is on the passengers side.  It will always list to that side depending on amount of fuel.

Looks like something that started with "Hey Bubba Watch This!" But all in all I think they are great trucks, but if you are so inclined Extreme 4x4 on spike tv built up a used F-150 to the same level of performance for half the cost. http://www.powerblocktv.com/episodes/XT2012-09/half-price-raptor-part-2

I have always been a ford owner. I have a Raptor that I use for my farm truck. Does everything I expected it too and still gets better fuel economy than my last f150. The suspension really shines at high speed, otherwise it drives just like a regular 1/2 ton. They are a lot of $$ but I believe I will get a great trade in price for it. I have two friends who have already traded theirs off and both got high $ for them. I believe they will be cheaper to run than a standard truck.

Hope you don't ever have to replace a shock on one. Holy crap they're expensive. Other than that, nothing typically bad about them that I've seen other than mpg's. I have a customer who has a Hennessy Velociraptor. Now we're talking.
