7.0 V8... Yes... Again

uhhhh you getting your numbers from your head lol??
raptor sales are not as awesome as you may think sir.

also, anyone and their mom can say it doesnt matter all they want but putting a v8 in a raptor will convert many to buy one.

you have a mass of Americans that grew up around v8 fords. you can scoff or call them stupid all you want. they have money and they spent it elsewhere.

...and they got less truck for their money, which is their right as consumers. V6 or not, the Raptor is in a market segment by its self.

In regard to Raptor sales, as a rule, the only stealerships that are having trouble moving them are those asking for massive ADMs.

Just looking around at lots- no Raptors
Just reading on here-many orders, waiting
Folks still paying waay over MSRP, asking where and happy to pay ONLY MSRP
Where you get info sales are off? In your head? If so how these prices holding up?
Only way - More demand than supply.
So it would appear to Ford- It ain't broke so don't fix it!

Unlike the J1 stained t-shirt wearing bubbas, I welcome advancement in any form Ford Performance chooses. When trading up that's what I want, a better truck.

Good, because a trade up is exactly what dumping that Taurus motor is going to be.

That Taurus motor is what made your truck irrelevant

This discussion's pointless. V8 or not, Raptor's better than any tree hugging hippie shitbox.

the raptor is a PR truck thats it. thats the only reason it doesnt have a v8 anymore.

This represents both you (full of hot air, all bark no bite, etc.) and your truck (self explanatory)...

Yes, a PR truck that outperforms the previous version of its self.
