Hey guys, figured after 9 months of lurking on this forum I'd finally join lol.
I've been wanting a Raptor for years and after owning super duty's, a few Dmax's and my last tuck, a 13 f150 3.5 EB it was time to finally just bite the bullet and buy a 1st gen Raptor.
Picked up a 13 SCREW Raptor in December and man what a fun truck it's been. I've only done the perch mod to it so far, as working out of town and building a new house has limited my time to customize the truck.
Originally I thought I'd buy a new EB Raptor since I seen that Video from Matt Ferrah on the SDHQ 1st gen Raptor with the EB way back in 14. Since that point I thought I had to own an EB to try it out.... well after buying a 13 SCREW EB Lariat and putting 70k miles on it, I went through 3 timing chains lol. that was enough to put a very sour taste in my mouth about the EB engines, so I bought this gem.
Anyways I'm looking forward to seeing your builds and hopefully getting some wheels and tires atleast on my truck this days off lol.
Oh yeah... and that's the wife's SRT behind my Raptor lol. it's been a good year!
