The consensus is generally that there won't be a V8 Raptor anytime soon/at all. My opinion, buy it now... If a V8 Raptor is released and you want it and can afford it, sell the V6 and buy the V8.
Looking forward to this thread getting out of hand though.
i'm still completely up in the air on color choice. But your Raptor has me leaning towards white (again). I love the contrast between the grill/fenders/tires/wheels and the paint.
^^ this, for the love of all that is holy
Oh, and if Ford could just do away with Sync all together and outsource everything IT related, that'd be stupendous. Let the gear heads stick to truck stuff, and the nerds will tackle the UI/UX/code.
+1 for not getting black. I have a black F150 (non-Raptor) now, and it shows even the smallest of scratches. If you're obsessive about keeping your vehicle clean (like I am), I would recommend a color that doesn't show dirt/scratches as easily.

Do you mind if I ask how much you...

If you have more information, please post as I'm curious.
And I'm not...
I appreciate the opinion. And I wouldn't doubt a front grill redesign to incorporate the 2018 F150's tweaks.
My skepticism lies with motive. Why would Ford delay? Keeping consumers on a cycle and then breaking it causes disruptions in supply chain management.
So *if* this is true, I'm...
