2017 Ford Raptor
Anyone else excited for this? Just looking at it raises my testosterone and makes me want to wear a monster energy drink hat.
450HP 510 lb-ft of torque.
$85,000 full option though and dealers here are price gouging like no tomorrow

the new raptor is a beast! $60k US is absolutely fully loaded but not a ton more than the previous generation

when u start using aluminum, rivets, and adhesives to build trucks. u know that thing is built weak.
looks good, but cheap underneath with cost saving production methods. cut corners but consumers wont know a difference.
turning almost into like a honda ridgeline, all about novelty and looks, but no real hard contents.

Just like how BOVs should have no place on a civilian soccer mom's crossover.

The lack of a V8 is kinda dumb. Looks super badass but sounds like a Honda when you stomp on it.
I hear the speakers make a faux V8 sound in the cabin on the new F150s, lol.

I had one, they're fun but all but useless up here. Would've rather had a diesel.
