I saw new Raptor ar LA auto show today. You couldn't touch or get in it, it was roped off. It's a nice looking truck, not as impressive looking as the current one, IMO. I think it will look better in the Super Crew platform. But this is preproduction and I'm sure there will be some tweaks. The flat black dual exhaust tips do look great.

I'm really glad I have a 2013, and the 2017 won't make me yearn to trade up. But I think it's going to be a great truck and if I didn't already have one, I would defiantly plan on getting one.

They brought back the Raptor driving simulator which looks like a lot of fun.

I thought the truck looked great. Did it meet my expectations in terms of looks? Yes it did.

Do I still think it looks better than a Gen 1? Not so sure. I think it's an even draw in my opinion. The Gen 1 still has something about it.

Couldn't get a glimpse of the engine compartment. They have a circular barrier around the truck so you can't feel or touch it.

The exhaust looks like a true 4 inch dual exhaust. Looks pretty bitchin'. This thing has to sound better than a regular F150 with Ecoboost.

Another note....that blue...whatever it's called, is ugly as hell in my opinion. I do hope Ford comes out with some nice colors and brings back Blue Flame. That blue that is on the concept or whatever you call it....sucks.
