I can’t stop staring!

I like the look tbh and I did it myself for like 6k other than the performance upgrades that's maybe another 5k but way less than half of that markup for the shelby badging. I'm not a fan of the hood though I love mustang's they run in my blood but not on my truck lol. But to each their own who cares what people think it's your preference if you love it go for it

I’ve been staring at this for a while. Wonder why registered, maybe to get off the books, sure seems sweet.

I agree it is sharp. The hood is ready to dump on a cold air intake. I bought a Tuscany 2nd hand because I liked the hood and body kits. Bad thing was though I did not pay the 70k but 50k for the truck with 15,000 on it I only got 40k on trade with 30,000. I’m not sure how they hold their value. If you are one to keep a truck 5+ years then I’m sure Depreciation doesn’t matter much. All that to say, that is a nice looking truck (though few agree on this thread)

V6 Shelby? No thanks. I think the front ends with the hood are hideous. Too nice to take off road. I'd rather have a GT500 or 350. Plus it's way over my budget.

No additional HP?

 

[Trailmaker]

The one at my dealer is 510 hp. This one appears to be the same. the turbo it up 2psi a run on a speed up timing so premium fuel only.

Yea $100k for mostly all show no go add ons, a tune, and a winch! Ah common!! Maybe $5k or $6k of added cost. Dealer makes $30k profit!!! As soon as you drive it off the lot price drops to $60k. Besides being Coyote Ugly IMO it is a VERY BAD investment.

But hey, its your money.

Get a Roush 5.0 or the build where they put a 5.0 in a Raptor. Those are at least worth the money!

For $65k...it’s not bad. Any more than that and you’re pissing away money. Gotta get over the Shelby designer’s ideas of what a Raptor should look like. Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder could have done better IMO.

Okay, okay. I’ll stop staring and buy a stubby antenna for my raptor instead.

Lol that’s funny.
Yeah you should shut it down... this Raptor group is not the same crowd I know back when I bought my 13.

It’s not that y’all are helping save a buck it’s that all the negative things about the truck that you and the ones that replied said.
Just say it is not my taste but would be more intrigued at $65k. OP likes it and did not ask if it was a good deal or did not take a poll on who would buy it. So yeah shut it down. Tough crowd.
