New Ford Raptor in development....

Just today I was thinking about this same thing. I would not own any other truck. I hope they keep making them.

I know some really good sources. I'd put money on a new raptor coming out.

Wasn't Toyota working on a "raptor killer"? Not that little Tacoma Baja, but a Tundra sized one?

Likewise. There just isn't another truck out there that looks nearly as good or performs as well. Once you sip the coolaid, its all over.

Yep, concept truck at SEMA, believe it was 2008 when Toyota had it there. Their plan was to run Camburg's long travel kit, spring under in the rear with Glassworks on all 4 corners like the pics below. No idea why Toyota didn't go through with the project, it could have been a huge success. Still could IMO

That Tundra is awesome! I'd take it!

at the SVT meeting from Snoball, they talked about how people from other manufacturers have been asking them how and what they did to get green lit by Ford to make the Raptor. I wanna say Toyota was a big one that was hounding a former Ford employee, now working for Toyota, on what they did. I guess alot of people want to make "Raptor Killers", but the parent company execs wont go thru with it.


Guess only Ford has the balls to do this stuff

All they did was throw a CTS-V engine in it and then BDS lift with 35's. At the ZR2 concept at least.

It has better tires and better suspension.

I was referring to the ZR2.
