I ordered my 2013 Raptor on March 1st and I am still waiting for a production date. My current ride is a 2001 SVT Lightning that I have had for 12 years and I still love it.

2008 Toyota Tundra. Great truck but I am now wanting more bells and whistles. I feel really bad letting her go but I don't want to have 2 trucks. I might get a base Mustang or Camaro next year as a city commuter.

I'm trading in a 02 audi a4 quattro. It's been lots of fun but it's time to move on. It's the only car I've ever owned, always had trucks before that. Just finished cleaning out the trunk and glove box.

Had a 99 Lightning...you're going to love the Raptor. It's heavier, but dammit it's just so much fun. Especially when you take it off road!

I still miss my Audi, I had a RS4 for 2 years. Though one day I come out and someone smashed in to it in a parking lot. It wasn't totaled or anything but that just ruined the car for me.

Haven't ordered yet, still appropriating the finances. I'm in a 2012 Ram R/T. Going from this to a Ford Raptor is going to be a big upgrade.

Parting with my 2010 GT500, here's a pic with the dealer plates on them, just finished doing all the paperwork for the Raptor, supposed to be here in two days after a good 6 weeks of waiting! :-]

Had a 2003 Cobra I bought from a buddy. Had it for about a year and a half and I never drove it. I had a 2004 Nissan Sentra as a daily driver that I sold to a co-worker. He loves it...good for him because I wanted to drive it off a cliff.

Before that, I had a 99 Lightning with a ported s/c, 4lb lower, full exhaust (headers back) and it put down 441rwhp and 530ft-lbs. Before the Lightning, I had a 05 Mustang GT with a Whipple supercharger on it and full exhaust (headers back as well) and it made 475rwhp and 465ft-lbs.

Cobra had a 2.2L Kenne Bell supercharger, upper pulley, CCW classics, 31 spline moser axles, built solid rear end with 3.73 gears, full Bassani exhaust, drag radials, and cage with 5 point harness. Put down 629rwhp and 546ft-lbs.

Oddly enough, the truck with 411hp is the least powerful vehicle I've owned since my first car (1997 V6 Mustang).

Dude! That Terminator is SICK! Do you still have it or did you get rid of it?

Coming from a similar truck as me (2008 Titan), but I'm ready to let her go! Trust me once you get the Raptor there will be no looking back. Ever since I drove my first Raptor, I've had my head set on getting one!

Especially from a Dodge :roflsquared:

6 weeks? That's child's play! I've already waited 6 weeks and don't even have my build date yet! Congrats on the new ride!

I traded some of this. It was good to me, hard to let it go.

I was driving a 2009 F250 King Ranch.

Decided I would rather have a Superduty so I bought another 2011 Superduty.

I sold it to a guy over on SVTPerformance. He'll get much more enjoyment than I did out of it. I only drove it once, maybe twice a month on the weekends. Got tired of paying for something that just sat all the time.
