Well finally got to see one up close and personal. Actually had to take a double take to make sure (never had to do that with the gen1) that it really was a Raptor.

I remember when they debuted and my first thoughts were meh and they still are. It looks ok but something is lacking to give it the wow factor. Too plain. More like a F150 with extra width and bigger tires but not different enough or unique enough. Kind of sad but not sure I'd want one even with a V8.

On top of that even my dealer where I bought mine at invoice is throwing on $8000 worth of markup.

I'll pass. Thankfully they'll always be a nice gen1 around for those of us who might want a second one.

$67,430 if anyone is interested

I think I'll keep these!

i have to agree, you see a gen 1 and you know. the gen 2s are definately low key. I was pulling into a gas station the other day and one was pulling out (first one i have seen in person)...i had to look at the tailgate to be sure. i do like them a lot though...but content with my gen1

Yeah they don't do much for me either. Shouldn't have to accessorize to make it look like a Raptor

It's not like they're ugly they just don't have the beast mode ours do. Nice or sharp come to mine but not wow or what a beast.

This one is still sitting on the lot and probably will for a while. The gen1 at invoice was a great deal but paying nearly $70 grand for the new one (that's not even loaded) will be a hard sell around here. Not many I've talked to are excited about the v6 Raptor anyways. The old ones never sat on the lot! Ever! Will be curious to see what eventually becomes of this one.
