This. Kinda like a angry hornet. Reminds me of when I used to rip around on my KX125.
Anybody else over the new Raptor R already?

For the same $$ just think I'll just keep my '19 Raptor and '13 Carrera S... and my '71 455 GTO... and my '60 Vette... and my '49 Willys street rod... and my '17 Tige' 23' wakeboat... and, well, you get the picture!
Regular cab wheelbase is 122” or 141”. Gen 2 Raptor SuperCab had a 134.2” wheelbase, which is not shared with any other F-150.
The F-150 frame was all-new in 2015 and the 2017+ Raptor received its own unique version of that frame design. Previous generation frames are unrelated.

Maybe you didn't read my post but they had it all in stock for the 2010, (133" 2008 f150) and then they built it all again for the 2017, which is 133" and not 134.2.. there's at least 2 gen3 frames but they chose to not make a supercab available at all, which is the Raptor heritage and really all they needed was a frame...
- Designed for Raptor – The all-new 2017 F-150 Raptor features its own high-strength steel box frames and include a Raptor-only SuperCab configuration with 134.2-inch wheelbase
I read it just fine. 2010 has nothing to do with 2017; two completely different generations and completely different frames. The Gen 1 used the same frame as every other F-150. Gen 2 frame is unique to Raptor, in both SuperCab and SuperCrew.
As stated previously, Gen 2 SCab has a 134.2” wheelbase. It’s unique to Raptor SCabs, and not shared with any other F-150.
And a shit ton of money to complete all of the required testing and büllshit paperwork because each body configuration is treated as a completely different vehicle. And then they only sell a few, losing money on each one. So they raise the price of all trucks to compensate. Everyone pays extra so that a few people to get exactly what they want. Sounds reasonable to me.

Honestly? Yes, Im over it. I knew it wasn't realistic when dealers started asking 30k-50k over msrp.
My 21 Raptor was very realistic because my dealer had an allocation for me and asked 5k over. I ended up paying $3,750 over msrp and took delivery within 90 days. It worked out well but as much as I want the R, I have a better chance winning the lottery.
