Hello all,

I am in the market for a new vehicle and I was browsing audi's and volvo's (something with AWD) if you can believe that and I somehow stumbled on the Raptor. My first truck was a Ford ranger, 4 cyl, 4x2 deathtrap in any inclement weather, and while reliable as a tank was not at all fun to drive. After reading about the Raptor and watching some clips on you tube this truck speaks to me! I have not seen one in real life as of yet but I am going to travel to test drive one if needed and place an order for a 2012 Raptor. I realize that this is a purpose built off road truck but it will be my DD, so I am looking for input from those who use it as such. I often lurk and read a ton but I just wanted to introduce myself and if anyone in the Pittsburgh area wants to take me for a spin that would be awesome!

It would suit you well for a DD, very good road manners for a 3-ton truck. I do not drive enough to say mine is a DD though, going on 2 years with 13.4k on the odo.

We don't get much snow but the last time I drove it in ice/snow it performed rather well...got irritated at the other drivers for poking around.

And lastly...welcome to THE forum.
