Since 2007, I have owned 6 different F-150's- 4 SCREW's, 2 SCAB's, 3 of them have been Raptors (2012 SCREW, 2017 SCREW, 2018 SCAB). I'm 58 years old, and the only time the extra cab space is used is either for my firearms or my grandkids. With that being said, I LOVE the SCAB vs. the SCREW. Plus, I so-much like the SCAB "look" vs. the SCREW. AND, less than 10 percent of Raps are SCABs. And yes, it seems more nimble (being a foot shorter), weighs slightly less than a SCREW, and allows an extra foot of space in the garage.

Thanks for the reply....A local dealer just got in a SCREW today, first one I've seen in person, very nice truck but seemed HUGE. Now I need to find a SCAB and see if I get the same impression from it, the foot shorter in the garage is the most appealing part for me. I don't care about resell value, planing on keeping it for 10+ years.

I had a 15 SCREW before. Not only is it more nimble, but I think it drives just as nice and I love the better turning radius!

I am going the other way. My 2011 Raptor was a SCAB my 2018 will be a SCREW. Length difference of 12" and an increase in turning radius of 12" are minimal. The gain of 10 gallon of fuel swayed me to a SCREW.

Built on 7/31, a month ago today.

I was just told "this vehicle is currently in quality assurance. I will let you know an ETA when I receive"... *sigh*
