Hey guys, joining to get info and maybe meet up with some of you.

I dont have a Raptor yet but in the near future I hope to get one. I just got a 2011 Mustang GT and have started modding it to recreate the Edmunds Insideline 2005 Mustang GT which was also my last Mustang before the 2011. My vehicle history is: Black 2005 V6, Silver 2005 Mustang GT (Edmunds project car), 2007 Roush Nitemare F-150, and the 2011 Mustang GT.

Heres the 2011 right now, needs suspension mods lol

when I had the F-150 I used to go offroading with my F-150 friends all the time but always had to ride in someone elses truck. Heres my friends badass F-150:

But i cant wait to get my Raptor. I might try to save up enough to pay off the Mustang and then finance a Raptor or just have 2 car payments. If I finish modding the Mustang I can save up money pretty quickly. Even thinking about a second job to get the money for the Raptor sooner lol

My dream Raptor is a Silver 2011 with the 6.2L, saw one the other day and loved the look of the grille against the silver. :peace:

What area are you in? I'm willing to bet someone on here would at least take you for a ride in their Rap for a ride in that powerhouse Mustang...

Well I'd do it, but I'm in west Texas. Keep an ear to the ground, hopefully one of our guys will throw you a bone.
