this is where the group buy or feeler thread comes in handy.... you never know with down payment's it's a win win two interested and it's not even a thread

I certainly won't turn my nose up at the idea but I also don't feel like begging people to take my money. Especially people who are turning their noses up at a market that actually exists today for a market that doesn't even exist yet.

As I mentioned to @pirate air in a PM, we are not opposed to doing a custom j-arm build on a Raptor. It's something we're happy to do, so if you're really interested, let me know and we can continue this conversation.

That honestly just looks like a 2014 that had a bunch of fugly slapped all over it.

I like that concept 10 times more when I first saw it. Still having a hard time with the looks of the gen2. Hoping this one looks much better in person. I hoping after you guys buy one and drive it for a year or so, then you can tell us all about it. If everyone raves about it and they don't do overkill on the pricing, I may just pick up one. If not, I'll likely just get a second gently used gen1.

Don't know if you guys saw but the #67 Ford GT at Rolex 24 in Daytona is already behind the wall working on the transmission apparently. Didn't last 20 minutes. At least the #66 is doing well early. Not the greatest debut for our new 3.5 eco!

That same 3.5L Ecoboost won the 24hrs Daytona last year in the No. 02 Ford EcoBoost/Riley DP car.


Ganassi introduces new Ford GT Sports Car Program
Only those on the inside had any inkling that this racing program was doubling as a development program for an engine that will power not only the new Ford GT race car, but also the production version of the Ford GT race car that was launched to overwhelming fanfare at the North American International Auto Show this past January. A couple of weeks after that new car was introduced, NASCAR stars Kyle Larson and Jamie McMurray combined with IndyCar stars Scott Dixon and Tony Kanaan to win the Rolex 24 At Daytona in Ganassi's No. 02 Ford EcoBoost/Riley DP.

I don't think that was the same engine. Yes, a 3.5l eco but the one in the Ford GT is the newest iteration isn't it?

By the way the second one is in the pits now, brake line or something. Oh wait, now the #66 has lost power and is back in the pits. Ugh!
