First off, I am no Ford homer. I've been a die-hard Chevy guy all my life. I've owned/built my share of full-size Chevy trucks and Blazers, ranging from 1977 K10 to my last truck, a 2005 Silvy--with the '81-'87 body-style still my all-time favorite. Nevertheless, I just bought a 2014 Raptor SE--because, well, there is nothing that has ever been built that comes close.

Now, about my Raptor. Its black--as are all the best looking trucks--and its a Crew Cab...err, SuperCrew. Its also a Special Edition, which I'm sure most of you will know also means it sports the 801A and luxury packages, along with the SE version of the bead-lock wheels. The only additional options I have are the moonroof, tailgate step, and spary-in liner.

Having dropped such a large chunk of change on this truck, I don't have any mods planned other than a cat-back exhaust and window tint.

With that, I am happy to contribute to your forum--if you guys'll have me!

Welcome to the Forum. I was also a GM guy but chevy wouldn't release anything like the Raptor. Lots of know-how on this site. Let the mods begin.

Evening...

I was the same. I was a gm guy owning and building a few but with nothing production wise equal to the raptor it was an easy choice

Yeah the Raptor brought many of us to the dark side! After owning the Raptor I even bought my wife a fusion this year too....
