Hello all

Hello all. I'm new to the forum and considering ordering a 2011 Raptor SCREW. I have been lurking for a few days and there is some good information on this site. I look forward to chatting with all of you in the future!

Hey Tyler.

Everyone here will tell you, owning one of these trucks is a blast. Go for it!!

Welcome! When I joined the forum, I was just "considering" one as well. Now, I'm waiting for one!

Thanks for the warm welcome fellas! I currently own a 2010 Lariat so I know how nice the new F-150's are. I was considering a lift and gear swap on mine but with the problems with traction control and what not after a lift I might just do it right! I may wait till the 2012's are announced though to see if I can get the EB in this beast!

WELCOME!
I was looking at the 2010 Lariat,FX4, and Platinum and boy am I glad I went with this.For the price you pay for one of those just get the Raptor.

I would agree with you on the MSRP's however with the rebates I got plus the USAA pricing I walked out with a loaded Lariat minus the nav for $35K. I dont remember exact numbers but if I recall Invoice was around $41K so I couldnt complain. The same dealer is offering a Raptor SCREW for $800 over invoice. I am fighting it right now but in the end will probably pull the trigger.

35K is an awesome price, but to me the LOOKS of the Raptor was untouchable with the suspesion and electronics intergrated into it Had to do it. lol

You are right. The raptor is an impressive machine! If the 2010 came in a SCREW I probably would have bought one. Had I known they would come out in 2011 I would have waited. The poor towing numbers of the SCAB steered me away as well as needing more room. Now that all is well with the world I am seriously looking into it.
