Just checking in

[SVTBird]

I know some of you from Stangsunited.com (I'm Birdman over there...lol) and some of the other Mustang sites where I'm SvtBird.

I finally got to see a Raptor in person and take it for a spin today. I was impressed ....enough that I'm seriously considering buying one to replace the SVT Lightning that I just sold. I'm a little hesitant though because of the 11-14 mpg fuel mileage especially with the impending higher gas prices because of the middle east turmoil.

What kind of fuel milage are you guys actually getting with the Raptor? It won't be my daily driver as I use a work truck (van) every day for my job so the Raptor would be used primarily on evenings weekends. This should limit the total milage some overall.

Hey SVTBird, welcome.

Glad to hear you liked the Raptor, be careful hanging around here or you'll likely soon find yourself placing an order.

As for your 11-14 estimate, that's pretty accurate for the 6.2

Glad to see you made it over here. This place is the SU of Raptor forums. As for gas mileage I try not to thing about it.

I'm gonna have to take a peek at this stangsunited place. There seems to be a lot of cool people coming over from there.
