I'm in Walgreens parking lot and a girl says to me, "I like your truck!" I nod at her and say thanks. Then she says, "I mean I really like your truck". Damn! She was cute but had to be 2 years shy of 18? I just sighed and rolled away searching for that one Skid Row on my thumb drive.

Ford tech asks me today "how much would you take for your Raptor?". I say I wouldn't sell it. Says "How bout a hundred G's? I say "Nope" and walk away.
Someone offers me 100,000 it's theirs. SOLD!

I had a guy tell me he would give up his left nut AND his wife for my truck..........I asked him if he had a picture of her & he just laughed.
Too bad about the wifey
My wife and daughter think its the best thing ever.
Used to get a lot of compliments on my old 2011 Raptor, but there are enough around here now that it's not quite as big a deal with the newer 2013. Cops definitely like it. Even a sheriff buddy of mine wants one.
I still look at it everyday and think its the best stock vehicle ever built

I don't get many out here because I live in Truck country Canada (Edmonton, AB) Raptors are a dime a dozen here.

Best compliment EVER
Long story but well worth the read
Whille pulling into a parking space at best buy, (away from everyone) I get out to find a mother and five-year-old son waiting for me to get out. Mom looked a little embarrassed but asked if her son(grinning from ear to ear) could look at my truck. She explained they just bought him a blue battery powered Ford raptor from Walmart that he absolutely loves. He calls it his "monster truck".
We spent 10 minutes going around the entire outside of the truck while I explained, (in 5yr old language) what everything does. We was very interested in the tires, lights, fenders, shocks, tailgate and even the ADD emblems I have on the doors. I opened the hood so his mom could pick him up to see the engin and aFE. Mom took about 10 pics of him from every angle possible.
His mom felt bad for keeping me but I didn't mind helping mold a possible future Raptor owner. Besides I was just wasting time till the movie started anyway.
He then wanted to see the inside which his mom objected, but again I insisted it was totally ok. I opened the driver side door and mom picked him up so he could get a better view but that was not good enough for the little guy, he insisted on climbing in. Again mom apologized profusely but I insisted it was ok and in he went. He reminded me of my dogs, front seat, back seat front seat, back seat. He explored every nook and cranny in the truck, touched every knob and flipped every switch. After another 10-15 minutes and 10 more pics his mom insisted it was time to go. Reluctantly he climbed out and just stared at the tires in amazment. With tears in her eyes and more thank yous then I could count he touched the truck one last time and off they went.
Did I mention the little guy has Down syndrome? It warmed my heart an made my year.
