If your up in Fort Mac, working on any of the service roads or anything I think you would definitely appreciate the Raptor. It's super comfortable on and offroad.

Thanks for the input, I don't use my personal vehicle for work thankfully but do go on bush roads, etc.

I prefer the way the raptor rides to any pickup weather its a 1/2 or 1 ton. If u dont need to tow big go raptor. Also u can start hitting up some of these runs and really have some fun!

Test drive one and u will feel the difference

When I'm on days off next week ill definitly take one out for a test drive, really looking forward to it. Here's a question, since the truck is 7" wider than regular, is the interior any wider or just the body/wheels?

Interior is no different than standard, it's just body and track width.

I have both a Super Duty (diesel) and a Raptor. In my opinion, they are different tools for different jobs. I will NOT replace my towing duties with the Raptor but some guys on here have. FWIW, its a 27' enclosed, usually loaded to about 8-9k. Not huge and the Raptor is quite capable power wise. However, its the chassis and brakes that separate the two.

My intent was to replace the SD with the Raptor but not a chance that will happen w regards to towing. Raptor is for fun, the SD is for work.

Ideally, Id like to upgrade my 2007 SD with a 2015 SD, diesel ofcourse.

20 years from now, no one would ever say to themselves, "I wish I would have bought that '14 F350 Platinum"...

...whereas one day, every Platinum, King Ranch, FX4, etc owner, will eventually see the error of their ways. We're just trying to keep people from having regret and depression. We save the ones we can. :angels2:
