Just wish they'd fix past problems before building new ones, just saying...

I guess what I would like to hear is how are the issues being reported to Ford, and does Ford have an engineer jumping on issues for the production truck? The Foutz team should be asked. Not sure how serious the odd ball engine stuff really is, but A Arm bolts pulling out sounds like a needed fix. Yeh, there racing, but the truck is brand new. That means in 2-5yrs ours would be pulling out. Or will Ford mostly write these issues off to racing?

As soon as I see the new Raptor do this I'll call it a racetruck

No because its running factory diameter shocks (3.0).

I know that Zane just thought that a "race truck" would use bigger shocks than just 3.0's. Bummer that the only thing stock about the shocks are just the diameter size but none the less still pretty impressive that everything else is pretty much stock

I'm not all that impressed... Look at how prestine those skids plates look . We should appoint Rasco the new driver or an equally insane individual

Yeah they definitely don't push it that hard in most of the videos I've seen. Only time I've seen it actually get up to speed is on a dry lake bed which isn't too hard to do lol
